Translator

[tunde]

thanks for the link. however, i need it to be a standalone application that just provide a simple translation from english to chinese.something similar like google translate. however, i just wanna create a simple translator program...... just the steps needed will be enough of a good start for me....

In Qt installation in examples directory just look on webkit\previewer and richtext\textobject

But it is not exactly what you want. It is just examples of UI.

Work with dictionary is implemented, as I said above, in GoldenDict. Sources are available and it is Qt-based.

Translation-engine is not Qt-related part, I do not know about any free implementation.

i tried searching for an example of any sample translation program in qt4 that translates a word from one language to another ; but to no avail.please help

[blex]

No such example. To translate the word you need a dictionary. Dictionary is not a part of Qt.

I show you above one example that already does it, but it is rather complex.

[alexander]

Which dictionary do you want to use? online?

[tunde]

yea.maybe using the google translate api or some kind of dictionary integrated into a simple translator program ..

[tunde]

i used 2 textedit to write the word,2 combox for selection of one language to another and a push button called "Translate" to translate the word based from the 2 combobox... now my idea is that is there any api or something i could use to integrate with this simple program... an example of how to create it would be helpful or beneficial

[tunde]

anyways.i have a source code of a translator program a friend of mines did.apparently it did not produce the translated word.... but it gave this application output
"
QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_translate_clicked()
Langs setted
Lang flags configured...
Last pair loaded
All buttons are connected
"

anyone that is willing to help , i can send the source code with the folder.....an email will be preferable

[alexander]

is it gpl or commercial program ?

[DenisKormalev]

tunde, looks like there was a button named translate (I think it was main button of app and it did actual translating) and it was renamed. Try to rename it back to translate.

[tunde]

gpl program

[tunde]

actually "Translate" was the push button for the application and on_translate_clicked() was the function to translate from a text edit to another text edit with the languages provided

[tunde]

i can provide the source code but it is kinda large

[anselmolsm]

tunde, use a source code hosting service (e.g. "gitorious":http://gitorious.org/, "github":https://github.com/, etc) then just post the link here :-)

[DenisKormalev]

tunde, I'm not saying about title but about its name in .ui file.

You have the shell of the app which is a good start, now you need the 'meat', the actual text translating functionality. I recommned you implement Google Translate API "from here":http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/overview.html to do the translation for you. They have documentation and example source code as well.

[stukdev]

Yes, use Google API, is the simple way!

Something like this "Qt App":http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/QGoogleTranslator?content=135221
