hi all

[pber]

Hi Jerome
and I all from Treviso - Italy, 30 km north of Venice.

Just learning something about eC.
Last time a deploed production code was in 2001.
And I don't know if I will ever return to work as a developer.
Probably I should write html-pages instead of looking for my way
through UML tools and code generation.
Someone just can't stop thinking about and building software.

cheers

PS: Yes, you must code awesome stuff with Ecere SDK and eC!

[pber]

Thanks redj

amazing tool Ecere.
I started the it translating of IDE (circa 35% at now)

Hi Paolo!

Italian translation! awesome!

Are you doing it on Launchpad or locally in a tool? (e.g. PoEdit?)

-Jerome

Hi Jerome,

I started using Poedit.

Now I just looked at launchpad:
it seems to be a bit complicated,
expecially designed for groups of translators.

If its' ok for you I'll send you a zip with it .po files.

[jerome]

Launchpad isn't so complicated, but the best way to contribute a translation would be to fork the github repo ( https://github.com/ecere/ecere-sdk/fork ) into your GitHub account and then clone that fork and commit translation there This way your contribution shows up.

Alternatively, you can email the translation directly to me at jerome@ecere.com

Hi Jerome,

eC expressions that cast are dangerous if not surrounded by { } pairs.

This code caues the class it is contained into to disappear from symbols.
if (cond) var = (castToThis) object;

Many years asking myself "should I use brackets even if it is just one statement?"
if (cond) {var = (castToThis) object;[/quote] }

The answer was yes.
J: eC is awesome!

Hi Paolo!

Yes, this is an old known bug in the precompiler (ecp).

http://ecere.org/mantis/view.php?id=360

With many duplicates...

I haven't gotten around to fix it yet

Re: the answer... I personally don't like brackets when there is just statement, and this bug has caught up on me many times... But yes with a cast to a class (Possibly only if the class is defined in another module I think), you need the brackets or ecp will bite you.

I will fix this one day!!!

Very glad you like eC! I think so too!
