All, I am working on a large-scale internationalization project that use the intl extension. I am storing localized strings in ICU resource bundles and accessing them via the intl ResourceBundle class. Part of my project relies on the fallback functionality of the ResourceBundle class. I have put all the US English strings (base language) in the root bundle and created an empty bundle for en_US as suggested in the ICU guide. That way if any string is missing in the localized bundles, everything automatically falls back to US English.
Fallback works great if I use the ResourceBundles get method, or if I use array access (e.g., $bundle->get(‘KEY’) or $bundle[‘KEY’]), but if I try to iterate over the en_US bundle’s content with foreach, it returns a null result because the bundle is empty. Is there any way to support fallback when using iteration? It’s not absolutely necessary for my project, but it seems that if the class is going to offer iteration support, that functionality should also support the fallback functionality. Thanks for the help. Joel Sahleen Software Engineer Adobe Systems
