Translations

Overview

The XML translation module allows defining and using translated strings directly within XML files.

Usage

Example XML translation definition:

In the root <translations> tag, the languages attribute defines the available languages, e.g., languages="en de hu". Language codes are free-form, but ISO-style codes are recommended.

Each <translation> defines a tag, which acts as the lookup key, and attributes for each language.

Translations may be omitted—Fallbacks will be applied when needed.

To register XML translations:

• lv_xml_translation_register_from_file("path/to/file.xml")

• lv_xml_translation_register_from_data(xml_string)

Multiple XML sources can be registered; they will be merged and searched collectively.

Usage in XML

Some widget properties support a *-translated suffix to refer to translation tags. For example:

This sets the label's text to the translated string for "dog".
