PySide6-lupdate bug

hizoka

Hello,

I guess I founded bugs with pyside6-lupdate command.

Can you confirm it please ?

With the command :

pyside6-lupdate file.py -ts file.ts

and as file.py :

# ==
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
# ==

I have the error :

Updating 'file.ts'...
    Found 1 source text(s) (0 new and 1 already existing)
    Kept 1 obsolete entries
Error: Contradicting source strings for message with id '='.

while executing '/home/hizoka/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/PySide6/lupdate file.py -ts file.ts

The problem are the #==.
Is OK :

# Only one =
#=
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#=

# Differents values before and after
#==
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#===

# Not = after the first #
##==
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
##==

# Not #== before
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#===

# Not #== after
#==
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")

# A # alone after the 1 #==
#==
#
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#==

# A # alone after the 2 #==
#==
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#
#==

It's not OK :

# With tr remplaces translation
#==
a = tr("a")
b = tr("b")
#==

# With ' or " or """ or '''
#==
a = translate('''ErrorMessage''', '''a''')
b = translate('''ErrorMessage''', '''b''')
#==

# With whatever char after #=
#=@
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#=@

# With lines between #= and commandes
#==
# ...
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
# ...
#==

And I founded a "better" bug, command never finishes without error message if a # finish the file :

a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#

a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
# ...
#

# Or # odd
a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#
#
#

If # is pair, it's OK

a = translate("ErrorMessage", "a")
b = translate("ErrorMessage", "b")
#
#

Thank you

The #= comment has a special meaning for id-based translations . This is best avoided.
