Localization in RCP plugins is usually
done by including translations in a property file and using their id in
plugin.xml.
I spend some time lately trying to
understand why some translations were not used in my application although they
were correctly displayed in PDE.
Answer : when using
plugin.properties, you MUST include the following line in the plugin
manifest :
Bundle-Localization:
plugin
Otherwise, PDE will show the translated
text, but your app won’t.
Strangely, I had to edit the manifest
manually because I couldn’t find a way to enable plugin localization in PDE.
Some other plugins of my application already had this line, but I don’t remember
adding it. Maybe Eclipse templates have changed since I created my first
plugins (using Eclipse 3.1).
記得以前插件開發也有這個問題,不過忘記了。
真是記性越來越差了。
這個問題竟然困擾了我兩個星期。還好可以google到別人的解決辦法,今天在這里留個腳印。
