OK, not necessarily a PalmOS questions...but...is a Palm Developer Question!!!!
I'm using CW7.0..hey...just downloaded the SDK 5.0 and compiled my app with the new SDK...runs excellent in the Simulator under emulated 4.0...cool! Anyway, I digress..... Ok, using CW7.0....but I am NOT using the Palm Constuctor....I HATE THAT THING....I'm using VFDIDE and have the PilRC plugin for CW7.0 working just fine. Now the question....I want to put multiple languages on my palm app. How did I do this before...well, I couldn't get the multi-language .prc working, so I used cw to create the .r file and had some folks create .r's with all the different languages. Then created different targets with the appropriate .r's. Yeah, yeah...stupid...I know...but I was in a hurry and the prc plugin for CW wasn't yet working correctly with multi language support (I THINK that may be fixed now, not sure, haven't tried). Now, my problem, I have totally changed the prc for the next release of our app. And, I don't want to do the same thing with the .r's again. So, I need some advice on the best approach to managing multiple languages in prc files with CW. One of the biggest problems is that when using multiple languages, sometimes the text string size differences require slight field displacement. Option 1: Create multiple prc's....but VFDIDE doesn't support multiple languages (I'm talking kanji here folks, not roman languages). Option 2: Use the multi-language support for PilRC. But the problem here is with string lengths, especially in labels that are prompting for field entry on the same "line" Option 3: Dunno...any suggestiongs... thanks in advance!!!
