[SOLVED] QTranslator not working?

maximus

Hi guys,

I'm trying out the translator system in QT for the first time.
I fallowed the guide :
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/internationalization.html

-First genereted the .ts file
-Edited the .ts file with Qt Linguist (completed the translation 100%)
-Compiled the .ts file into .qm file in QtCreator

The .qm file and .ts file are in the root on my project, here's a screenshot:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gv2wraan7au8o75/folderProject.png

I specify in my main to load a specific .ts file just for testing, but it still show the english text. (see code below)
Anything I forgot to do?
Thanks in advance /Merci à l'avance :)

@int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

QApplication a(argc, argv);

QString locale = QLocale::system&#40;&#41;.name(&#41;;
qDebug() << "LOCALE : " << locale;

QTranslator translator;
translator.load("powervelo_fr");
a.installTranslator(&translator);

MainWindow w;
w.show();

return a.exec(&#41;;

Hi,

Without the rest of your code, it's difficult to say what could be wrong. The first guess is: did you surround all your visible texts with tr() ?

I set the text directly in QtCreator interface

An example of generated code looks like this :
@groupBox->setTitle(QApplication::translate("MainWindow", "Filter", 0));@

I think it's good syntax cause the generated .ts file make an entry for it

Thanks

Hmm probably a problem with the path of the file

the boolean return false when I load the file

@ QTranslator translator;

bool test = translator.load("powervelo_fr");
qDebug() << "LOADED? " << test;
//return false
a.installTranslator(&translator);@

Are you sure your file is in the same folder as your executable ?

Include in your pro file:
@
TRANSLATIONS = HD120_en.ts
HD120_nl.ts
HD120_cn.ts
HD120_pt.ts
@
Of at least the ts files you need. That's needed for QtLinguist. Also check if your using a shadow build that your files are in the same as the executable file! Not in your project, but in your debug/release folders!!

maximus

That was the problem, the files were in the project instead of the release/debug folder

Thanks guys!

If that fixed it, place [SOLVED] in front of your first post!!
