Hi,
We still have three almost identical files. Can we somehow keep just
one and generate the other two? I was actually playing a bit with a
change in the opposite direction - keeping just the EngineMessages
enum with added default english translations and generating all other
files from it.
Do you think it would make sense? It would not require a test then as
the consistency would be checked during compilation phase directly.

Hi,
In order to resolve bug [1] and prep [2], the default English text for I18N
Constants and Messages have been moved to their corresponding properties
files. Going forward, if a new constant or message needs to be added,
please add the key method to the proper interface and then add the key plus
English text to the interface's corresponding properties file. Checks will
be added, in the next few days, to fail the build process if the GWT
annotations (@DefaultStringValue, @DefaultMessage) are used.
This change has been made to simplify the translation process [1] and to
prepare for the replacement of the GWT i18n engine in 4.1 [2].
For example, in the webadmin project, the ApplicationConstants [3] interface
previously looked like:
package org.ovirt.engine.ui.webadmin;
import org.ovirt.engine.ui.common.CommonApplicationConstants;
public interface ApplicationConstants extends CommonApplicationConstants
{
@DefaultStringValue("oVirt Engine Web Administration")
String applicationTitle();
@DefaultStringValue("About")
String aboutPopupCaption();
@DefaultStringValue("oVirt Engine Version:")
String ovirtVersionAbout();
Now, the interface looks like this [4]:
package org.ovirt.engine.ui.webadmin;
import org.ovirt.engine.ui.common.CommonApplicationConstants;
public interface ApplicationConstants extends CommonApplicationConstants
{
String applicationTitle();
String aboutPopupCaption();
String ovirtVersionAbout();
With a new properties file created, ApplicationContants.properties [5], with
this kind of content :
#
#
# Bundle name: org.ovirt.engine.ui.webadmin.ApplicationConstants
#
#
#Thu May 19 01:24:21 EDT 2016
aboutPopupCaption=About
applicationTitle=oVirt Engine Web Administration
ovirtVersionAbout=oVirt Engine Version\:
Let me know if there are any questions.
Regards,
Scott
