Re: [android-developers] Bing translator api issue
I don't really get what you want to do. I'm guessing you want to use only
one strings.xml and translate "on-the-fly" all the texts for this and the
rest of your activities?
The best way would be to just translate the strings to another strings.xml
and use the values/your-language bucket to store it. And then just change
language. I've found this Q&A doing a fast search:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12908289/how-to-change-language-of-app-when-user-selects-language
.
If you need to use the Bing service because it's some exercise or proof of
concept or something like that, you could make a Dictionary class or
service that translates every string on the file and stores the translation
on some form of cache.
You could make it eager and load every string just once. In this Q&A you
can find how to get all the IDs so you can then retrieve the strings you'll
have to translate: http://stackoverflow.com/a/14389698/671431
Or you could make it lazy and get one string at a time. In both cases,
there will be some performance penalty on your UI. One will be a long wait
everytime the user changes to a new language, and the other will make the
first load of every screen a bit slow.
And then there will be even more penalty because anyway you would need to
make a someView.setText(yourDictionary.getText(R.string.someString)) call
for every TextView and perhaps also setContentDescription on the
ImageViews.
I don't think it's pretty.
