Localize application - wxLocale in every Frame and Dialog

[Morfio]

Hi,

I want to translate my application. I thought I use wxLocale and add my catalog. In the main dialog it works perfectly, but in the children of the dialog all strings are in default english. Have I to add wxLocale (and the catalogs) to every subwindow in my program or is it possible to do this in a global way?

Thank you very much,

Morfio

usually it becomes on wxApp level. OnOnit method is the best place for it.
Anything like this:

Code: Select all

bool MyApp::OnInit()
{
// Some Init
    ...
// Set locale
    int sys_lang = wxLocale::GetSystemLanguage();
    if( sys_lang != wxLANGUAGE_DEFAULT )
    {
	m_locale.Init(sys_lang);			// set custom locale
	m_locale.AddCatalogLookupPathPrefix("locale");	// set "locale" prefix
	m_locale.AddCatalog("maycatalog");      		// our private domain
	m_locale.AddCatalog("wxstd");      		// wx common domain is default
        ...
    }
    ...
