Re: [Oorexx-devel] Rethinking error messages.
Sounds good, I tried building on Haiku OS and missing gencat utility was my first failure. ___ Oorexx-devel mailing list Oorexx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/oorexx-devel
[Oorexx-devel] Rethinking error messages.
The purpose of the rexx.cat file is (in theory), that by having separation between the executables and the error texts, we can easily translate the error messages. In reality, there has never been any attempt at having multiple versions of the messages, and I suspect we have really been misusing the catopen() mechanisms in a way that would really prevent multiple languages from happening. The move toward the USB execution only complicates this since we desire to pick up a specific rexx.cat file rather than using the DLPATH capabilities. In addition, the Windows version makes no attempt at implementing NLS support. The error messages are bound into the rexx dll as string resources. To do any sort of translation, you need to rebuild the interpreter with a different .rc file. There is no switching. As I'm working on code to locate the specific .cat file, it occurred to be that it would be a trivial matter to implement something like Windows uses and have an internal message table rather than have this external artifact that needs to be located.

Re: [Oorexx-devel] A crash (not finding rexx.iimg?) (Re: Experimental "standalone" ooRexx interpreters
This is not an acceptable patch because it imposes a directory structure that is not necessary and is not necessarily what will be used on the other platforms. Just make the simple one-line change to the CMakeLists.txt file to install rexx.img in the same directory as librexxapi as it intended. Rick On Wed, Jan 9, 2019 at 1:21 PM Rony G.
