New forum - Language helper - vB-EasyTranslator
Hi,
Maybe this could help several Forum Owners that are going to upgrade to VB5... In my case, I needed a French Translation and either if this is 80% accurate due to Google Translation, I think this could be a good idea for any Forum Owner that doesnt run it in English. So.. I made this tool, that works for me.. and would be glad to update it if it fails for you. Link to the .EXE file (created with .Net C#) All you have to do is insert the path of your vB XML language file, and it will sort it out. - The (1) will extract the English texts from the XML - (2) is not automated yet, needs you to translate the file (use Google Online Translator Toolkit to translate the full extracted file) - Run the (3) Merge the translated text with the New language. Finally, the XML will look good. So far, I didn't importedm ine on my test vB5 forum as I didn't had time. The only thing (that is on my todolist) is that the XML headers may need to be adjusted to your language which is not that much a pain, and though you may have to review Google Translations Please, let me know how that helps, and should you see an improvement, let me know ! Regards Pierrick |

Well, I read it but did not want to write something negative. I just don't see how this would be useful. Automated translations are just horrible, and many language packs do exist.

Hi Cellarius,
I couldn't find any language pack for vB5 so far and definitely, I agree with you.. at least, 80% will be correctly translated from my test bringing down the hard task of these 13.000 lines of the XML file. Therefore, Google is not the best translation but maybe someone could propose something better that would make it ! Anyway, I m one of this guy that likes feedback, good and bad Thanks again. |
