QLocale/Resource

[coderbob]

In QResource the example shows the use of QLocale with a resource.

<qresource>
     <file>cut.jpg</file>
 </qresource>
 <qresource lang="fr">
     <file alias="cut.jpg">cut_fr.jpg</file>
 </qresource>

<qresource>
     <file>cut.jpg</file>
 </qresource>
 <qresource lang="fr">
     <file alias="cut.jpg">cut_fr.jpg</file>
 </qresource>

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

My question here is if I have a mechanism to change language and adjust QLocale dynamically during program run time will it automagically understand the alias change and adjust for the proper language?

Take a look at that:http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/i18n.ht...e-translations

The sample code at the end of the section shows, how to load resources based on current language settings.

Hope this helps,

Thx DeepDiver but it is a slightly different situation.

I have just been entrenched in so many other problems I didn't even think I should just create my own working example of it and force QLocale and see what happens....

My problem that I was attempting to solve in the first question was having documentation set in html formatted files and loading them into a QTextEdit depending on what language was in use.

If I placed in them in a resource file I could then just display them in the QTextEdit appropriately but was unsure of how to access them from resource file and have them displayed.

I know how to read them in from file and set them but file access times are unacceptable so I figured I could add them as a resource and trade time for size.

In case anyone was wondering

QFile file(THE_RESOURCE); // This should never fail since its a resource
     QByteArray data = file.readAll();
     QTextCodec *codec = Qt::codecForHtml(data);

QFile file(THE_RESOURCE); // This should never fail since its a resource
     QByteArray data = file.readAll();
     QTextCodec *codec = Qt::codecForHtml(data);
