[Interest] Dynamic translation using Qt Quick 2.x in Qt5.1.1

[Ramakanthreddy Kesireddy]

Hi,

Thanks for your mail.

When the language changes, have the LocaleUpdater emit the
localeChanged() signal. Does it mean we need to implement the event() function in LocaleUpdater
to catch the QEvent::Localechange event and emit localeChanged() signal?

Best Regards,
Ramakanth

No, not directly. But there are a couple of things you can do instead.

The key in both my solutions is to have a single C++ object with a property registered to QML:

   class LocaleUpdater : public QObject {
     Q_OBJECT
     Q_PROPERTY(QString localeChange READ localeChange
       NOTIFY localeChanged)
   ...
     QString localeChange() const { return QString(); }
   };

Export this to the QML:

   LocaleUpdater updater;
   qml.rootContext()->setContextProperty("localeUpdater", &updater);

When the language changes, have the LocaleUpdater emit the
localeChanged() signal. You can now do one of two things:

1) Use the text updater string directly:

   someObject.text: qsTr("Foo") + localeUpdater.localeChange

2) Catch the emitted signal and set all strings

   Connections {
     target: localeUpdater
     onLocaleChange: {
       someObject.text = qsTr("Foo")
     }
   }

I hope this helps.

Bo.
