Re: [p2-dev] Translations in dropins not picked up

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andrew,

This is certainly expected to work,
and I know some IBM translation teams have been doing exactly this for
translating testing.  The only bug in this area that I am aware of
is:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=236248

However, this only concerns a very small
set of strings in the about dialog, due to caching of these strings early
in startup before the dropins folder has been processed. There was another
bug in this area that was fixed in 3.4 RC1:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=230421

However, it seems in your case the translation
bundle is just not being resolved due to a missing dependency. The first
test would be to run from the console and do "ss" to see if the
translations are picked up (in resolved state). You could also try installing
the fragment directly from the GUI to see if it is a problem specific to
dropins.

Subject	[p2-dev] Translations in dropins not picked up

Hi,

I've been getting reports [1] of issues with translations being picked
up from dropins.  Note that this is with a read-only shared
installation.  Is this expected to work?  In the log [2] there
are lots
of entries like this:

!SUBENTRY 1 org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director 2 0 2008-08-13 17:47:51.534
!MESSAGE Unable to satisfy dependency from org.eclipse.jst.ws.creation.ui.nl_fr
0.2.0.v20080803043401 to requiredCapability: osgi.bundle/org.eclipse.jst.ws.creation.ui/[0.0.0,9.9.9).

I'm considering making some instrumented JARs to give to the reporter to
get some more detailed logging (unless there is sufficient logging with
a properly-configured debug options file?).

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed debugging this?

Thanks,

Andrew
