[Interest] problem with localising qt application

[Pritam]

Hi

I am trying to make my application localisation aware. I looked at qt 
examples.
They all write user visible text inline with the code.
eg:

label->setText(tr("some long text"));

I dont want to embed user texts in source files because sometimes they 
are very long.
It will be better if I can read all user visible text from a file and 
store them in variables. Rest of the source code uses these variables 
when it needs text.
eg:

label->setText(tr(UserTexts::categoryLabelText));

But tr() doesn't recognise it. From documentation I can't figure out any 
easy way to do that. Unless I check the current language at startup and 
read appropriate version of my file for that language. But in that case 
I don't get any benefit of Qt Linguist.

Pritam
