[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-934?page=comments#action_12436238 ] Thorsten Scherler commented on FOR-934: ---------------------------------------
I had a quick look at the patch and it would make a good plugin. Since the dispatcher contract is only a small part of the overall code and the code is not limited to the dispatcher it makes sense to create a plugin out of it. wdyt? > i18n language override menu > --------------------------- > > Key: FOR-934 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-934 > Project: Forrest > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Dispatcher (aka views), Internationalisation (i18n) > Affects Versions: 0.8-dev > Reporter: Sjur N. Moshagen > Attachments: i18n-languages.zip > > > Attached is a dispatcher contract with support files. It will return a list > of alternative languages available for a given document. The list is of the > form: > <!--+ |start language list +--> > <span> > <a href="?locale=en">en</a> > </span> > <span> > <a href="?locale=fi">fi</a> > </span> > <span> > <a href="?locale=nb">nb</a> > </span> > <span class="selected">se</span> > <span> > <a href="?locale=smj">smj</a> > </span> > <!--+ |end language list +--> > It handles filenames following this scheme (convention is already established > for Forrest): > document.XY.extension (XY = locale/language of document) > document.extension (fallback document) > If there is a fallback document, the contract will try to look inside the > document to see if it can find an @xml:lang or @lang attribute to associate a > language with the fallback document. > The contract returns a list of available languages, including the one being > displayed. The displayed language is marked with @class="selected" in the > output html. > If there is only one document available (=no alternating languages), the > contract only returns three comments (start, end, and a comment stating that > there's no alternative). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
