[flexcoders] Application language files
Hi guys, I want to store all my messages in a language class, common things like login fail messages etc, so I can easily change them later or perhaps add another language. I was talking with a friend about how best to do this, and we couldn't decide. At first we thought of making a LanguageManager singleton class with each translation as a const, but then we'd be bloating the application with unwanted languages. Maybe we could import a SWC at runtime with the correct language class? Can anyone suggest the best solution for working with languages? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Application-language-files-tp21552940p21552940.html Sent from the FlexCoders mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Re: [flexcoders] Application language files
Take a look at ResourceManager, and the resource module examples in the Developer Guide. We use this method, and it's been working pretty smoothly. We compile with locale= (the empty string), so that resources are *always* loaded at runtime (we found that this simplified things a little). You can pre-load a specific resource module (based on flashvars, I believe), so it's available at startup, but we just have a non-localized login screen where the user picks a locale. -- Maciek Sakrejda Truviso, Inc. http://www.truviso.com -Original Message- From: Sceneshift j...@sceneshift.com Reply-To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Application language files Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2009 14:23:38 -0800 (PST) Hi guys, I want to store all my messages in a language class, common things like login fail messages etc, so I can easily change them later or perhaps add another language.

Thanks very much for your reply, I will look into this! Maciek Sakrejda wrote: Take a look at ResourceManager, and the resource module examples in the Developer Guide.
