Re: com.google.gwt.i18n.client.LocalizableResource.Generate.fileName() ?

Hi there,

I have created an incremental GWT generator that is creating an interface derived from com.google.gwt.i18n.client.Constants.
The problem is that the source of the generation is some class that is a representative for a resource bundle and I can not generate the Constants interface with the same name but want it to honor the localized properties with that base name. To make it clear, I have something like:

some/package/MyBundle.java
some/package/MyBundle_de.properties

From MyBundle.java my generator creates
some/package/MyBundleGwtINls.java

like this:

@Generate(format = "com.google.gwt.i18n.rebind.format.PropertiesFormat", fileName = "MyBundle")
public interface MyBundleGwtNls extends Constants {
  @DefaultStringValue("Reflective access for \"{accessible}\" failed!")
  String errorAccessFailed();
}

Now due to fileName property of @Generate I would expect GWT to honor MyBundle_de.properties located in the same package if it contains a property errorAccessFailed with a German translation.

Is my understanding of the JavaDoc of fileName() wrong?

Yes. @Generate is about generating files from the interface (i.e. generating a properties file from the @DefaultStringValue and other annotations)

 

Is there any way to archive my goal with GWT I18N?

None that I know about.

 

Any other ideas?

Your generator could copy the properties files with the new name (MyBundle_de.properties → MyBundleGwtNls_de.properties) so that the Constants GWT generator could find them where it expects them.
