RE: [icf-dev] Translations question

Thank you for your reply!

I read the documentation earlier. This API uses gsm_translations table and it is meant for translations of labels, tooltips on visual objects. As I mentioned at the end of my mail I think I could use gsm_translations table but I am not sure if that is the correct way to go.

Did you use this API explained Programming Handbook you find in section 5-7 to store your own translatable text values ?

I am still hoping someone would know what gsc_language_text table is designed for and if there is documentation how to use it.

It would allow to use categories (table gsm_category) and that would be nice.

I think in John Sadd's Programming Handbook you find in section 5-7 the

things you want to know. (The API's are in the Localization Manager)

Hi,

I have a need to store and read general translations for texts in Dynamics 2

applicatation (addition to screen translation what is supported in

Dynamics).

It would be quite easy to implement this by adding one table for

translations but I wanted to first find out what is available in Dynamics.

I found table gsc_language_text in Dynamics repository.

Could this table to be used for own categories and does it have support by

Dynamics managers ?

I did not find a documentation for this table from Posse. The table is empty

in my repository.

Is there documentation for this table (gsc_language_text) and the mangagers

supporting it ?

I think gsm_translation table could also be used for my purpose as it has

manager support but looks that gsc_language_text would be better.

Best regards,

Hi Veli

The description in Erwin for the gsc_language_text table is:

Totally generic text file for all supported languages. Text's may be

associated with another entity (via owning_obj) or may be simply generic

text of a certain type. Numbers enclosed in are for parameter

substitution.

E.g. Scheme option names, transaction narrations, valid people titles, etc.

A client of ours has a similar table, for performance reasons they created

their own table with less fields in it, which may also be an option for you,

depending on how much translation you are planning to do in your system.
