How to apply the tr() macro to a label added with designer

[franco.amato]

Hi,
I trying to implement 'translation' to some labels of my project.
So I'm wrapping every label with the tr() macro to apply lupdate in a second moment.
My doubt is how can I do it with the labels added with the designer?

All user visible strings generated by Designer are already wrapped into tr() calls. This is of course well documented in the reference.

Thank you very much.
I gave

lupdate -verbose myprofile.pro

and I got many errors as in the screenshot I'm attaching lupdate.jpg.
Where are my mistakes?

I copy here the shell output as it's not well visible in the image

You remembered about adding translation entries in the project file, right? You do know the process of translating your application is explained in the docs, correct?

it should be so:
1) wrap every string with tr() macro
2) call lupdate in the files
3) translate the string with linguist
4) add TRANSLATION entry to the pro file with the files produced by linguist.

Maybe I'm wrong?

[wysota]

Yes, you are wrong. There is a "step by step" procedure described in the docs, just follow it. Pay speciall attention about the order of doing things.

I'm following the step by step mentioned by you and seems the 1 and 2 are as above so why I'm getting that errors?

Ok I found one of my mistakes. I forgot to add the entries in the pro file before callung lupdate,
but I'm still getting some strange errors ( and this time I don't think it's for my mistake ).

What does mean

Function 'eval' is not implemented

These are all warnings, you don't need to worry about them. Remove the -verbose parameter from lupdate call and they will probably go away.

Yes I agree with you, but warning normally is something that's not ok.
I would know why I'm getting such warnings

[wysota]

Because function 'eval' is not implemented.
