I've chosen a simple solution by creating a mixin for the application as follows:
qx.Mixin.define("apple.application.MTranslation", { construct : function() { qx.locale.Manager.getInstance().addListener("changeLocale", this.loadApplicationTranslation, this); this.loadApplicationTranslation(); }, members : { loadApplicationTranslation : function() { var locale = qx.locale.Manager.getInstance().getLocale(); if(locale) { var map = this.getApplicationTranslationMap(locale); if(map) { qx.locale.Manager.getInstance().addTranslation(locale, map); } } }, getApplicationTranslationMap : function(locale) { var map = { "item" : { en : "apple", de : "Apfel" } }; var m = {}; for(var id in map) { if(map[id][locale]) { m[id] = map[id][locale]; } } return m; } } }); for the pears application the relevant part in getApplicationTranslation (besides the pear namespace) would be: var map = { "item" : { en : "pear", de : "Birne" } }; To use this mixin simply add it to the include [...] list in your Application.js like this: qx.Class.define("apple.Application", { extend : qx.application.Standalone, include : [ apple.application.MTranslation ], ... I know that this way I'm loosing the automatism given by "generat.py translation", having to track the this.tr/this.trn entries manually. Any thoughts, hints, optimizations are very welcome.
