AL Translation Center

This extension allows to improve speed in multilanguage development in AL Language using developer comments for adding translations. Previously, the idea was used in AL Language Tools extension (thanks ClipDynamics!).

Requirements

• AL Language extension.

Main features

• Xliff translation, based in developer comments (property comment).
• Publish and package directly with translations, without need to create tasks or do manually. It creates the package (generate the source xliff), then the translations. Finally, it creates/publish after generating new package, now with embedded translation in it.
• Included basic translation snippets (for Label, Caption, OptionCaption, Tooltip, AboutTitle, AboutText and AdditionalSearchTerms).
• Generated files are compatible to use with Microsoft© Multilingual Editor.
• Search occurrences in case of badly formatted caption translations (prevents of translation process).
• Supports translation of the AL project in use in multiroot workspaces.

Improvements

• Added directly support for more languages (like Catalan, Galician, Basque, Portuguese, Polish).
• Translation texts can contain '=' character.
• Can translate .xlf files created with extension with invalid filenames characters (like ":").
• Edit or add new languages for conversion.

Known Issues

• May not work with first versions of AL Language extension.
• You tell me.
