Re: [swift-users] Swift localisation, percentage sign escaping

[Zhao Xin via swift-users]

Forgot to show an example.

In Swift, below code won't work,

let says = NSLocalizedString("It runs \(count) times", comment: "run times")

You should use

let says = String.localizedStringWithFormat(NSLocalizedString("It runs %@
times", comment: "run times"), String(count))

How do you check the output?
If you are using NSLog(output) in Obj-C and print(output) in Swift, that is
why.
The first parameter of NSLog is a format.

Interpolation doesn’t need escaping, but String(format:) does.

[swift-users] Swift localisation, percentage sign escaping

[Adam Sutcliffe via swift-users]

Hi,

I've been having an issue with a localised string,, one of which has a
percentage sign in it:

"GAMERANK_5_DESC" = "Wow! You're racing ahead. Only 5%% of our users get
here!";

the key is built as such:

Obj-c : NSString *key = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"GAMERANK_%@_DESC"
,rank];

Swift: let key = "GAMERANK_\(rank)_DESC"

Then localised with the same macro:  NSLocalizedString(key, @"");

The output is different though:

Obj- C = "Wow! You're racing ahead. Only 5% of our users get here!"
Swift = "Wow! You're racing ahead. Only 5%% of our users get here!"

Is this a bug in the swifts localisation parsing? Does the percentage sign
not need to be escaped in Swift?

Cheers
