The statistics on this page: http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/stats.php Are not accurate. They include strings that are not translatable (and hence remain in English) and they also include files that are obsolete. Please change the scripts that calculate these statistics to remove the dependency on the two aforementioned items.
Assigning to myself.
While you're in there, could you do something about statistics for translations which are inherited from related languages (eg en_AU inherits from default locale, and pt_BR inherits from pt)? For instance: for text which is identical in en_US and en_AU, en_AU won't need its own translation (with bug 258217, such text might be marked as "use original English"). And if (enhancement) bug 258216 is implemented, en_AU might inherit from en_GB too. Do you want this as a separate enhancement request?

After investigation, it appears the stats calculations are accurate. The problem is that the maps processor isn't removing dead files. For instance, all (or most) of the files below are dead, yet contain thousands of strings and zero translations. Once bug 254429 is fixed, that will fix the stats. | 1087 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.cde.CDE.properties | 38 | 0 | | 1088 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.cocoa.Cocoa.properties | 67 | 0 | | 1089 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gdip.Gdip.properties | 540 | 0 | | 1090 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gnome.GNOME.properties | 40 | 0 | | 1091 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gnome.properties | 1 | 1 | | 1092 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.GTK.properties | 12 | 0 | | 1093 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.OS.properties | 2473 | 0 | | 1094 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.properties | 1 | 1 | | 1095 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.motif.OS.properties | 1039 | 0 | | 1096 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.mozilla.XPCOMInit.properties | 71 | 0 | | 1097 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.ole.win32.COM.properties | 227 | 0 | | 1098 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.opengl.carbon.AGL.properties | 23 | 0 | | 1099 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.opengl.glx.GLX.properties | 37 | 0 | | 1100 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.opengl.win32.WGL.properties | 21 | 0 | | 1101 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.photon.OS.properties | 525 | 0 | | 1102 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.properties | 2 | 2 | | 1103 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.OS.properties | 1829 | 0 | | 1104 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.Win32.properties | 59 | 0 | | 1105 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.opengl.GL.properties | 160 | 0 | | 1106 | org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.opengl.GLU.properties | 77 | 0 |
So the maps processor seems to be removing dead files now. There remains a problem. Look at this file: http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI%20Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal/org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.OS.properties?hideattic=0&view=log This file was removed Wed Sep 10 22:29:20 2008 UTC so it's still a valid file in Eclipse 3.4 (and 3.4.1). However, it contains thousands of strings that are definitely bogus, non-translatable strings, and these 'untranslated' strings are negatively affecting the stats. To fix the stats (and to avoid people translating them for nothing), I recommend I simply mark as Inactive all those bogus SWT/JNI_Generation files that are dead today. Kit, what do you think?
(In reply to comment #5) > After investigation, it appears the stats calculations are accurate. > > The problem is that the maps processor isn't removing dead files. > > For instance, all (or most) of the files below are dead A slight precision: the files in my previous comment are dead in the HEAD stream. For 3.4 and 3.3.1, the files are still 'good', although we know they shouldn't be. I have marked those files as inactive, and I'll make sure they get excluded from the stats counts accordingly. I have confirmed that they no longer show up in the UI for translation.
With the files removed and all the strings active, eclipse 3.4 went from 68% complete (for French) to a more realistic 98.7%. Closing as fixed. We will probably still get similar "dead" .properties files that should not be in Babel in the future, but we'll just have to mark those as inactive manually.
