Hello,
I'm writing some back-end code to automate translations. I would like to
populate a Unit object with a target multistring. I would like to learn
more about the multistring object in relation to translations;
unfortunately, the API doesn't provide me with enough information about
the behavior of multistrings.
How should I create a multistring to store a translation? Should I
construct it with the following:
s = "hello world"
ms = multistring(s)
What about multiple translations? Is this correct?
ss = ["hello world", "hi world", "hello earth"]
ms = multistring(ss)
How do I access each of the translations? If I use ms.strings, I get the
following:
[multistring([u'hello world',u'hi world',u'hello earth']), u'hi world',
u'hello earth']
I see that I can get the alternative translations by referencing
ms.strings[1] and ms.strings[2], but how should I access the first
string (e.g. "hello world")? If I use unicode(ms), I can get "hello
world", but is this the best approach?
If I want to add another translation, should I use ms.strings.append("hi
earth")?
What are your recommendations for best practices for working with
multistring? I want to make sure that my code follows the use of your
patterns correctly.
Thanks for your help,
Nick
