\title QML Internationalization


Strings in QML can be marked for translation using the qsTr(), qsTranslate(),
QT_TR_NOOP(), and QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP() functions.

For example:
\qml
Text { text: qsTr("Pictures") }
\endqml

These functions are standard QtScript functions; for more details see
QScriptEngine::installTranslatorFunctions().

QML relies on the core internationalization capabilities provided by Qt. These
capabilities are described more fully in:
\list
\o \l {Internationalization with Qt}
\o \l {Qt Linguist Manual}
\endlist

You can test a translation with the \l {QML Viewer} using the -translation option.

\section1 Example

First we create a simple QML file with text to be translated. The string
that needs to be translated is enclosed in a call to \c qsTr().

hello.qml:
\qml
import QtQuick 1.0

Rectangle {
    width: 200; height: 200
    Text { text: qsTr("Hello"); anchors.centerIn: parent }
}
\endqml

Next we create a translation source file using lupdate:
\code
lupdate hello.qml -ts hello.ts
\endcode

Then we open \c hello.ts in \l{Qt Linguist Manual} {Linguist}, provide
a translation and create the release file \c hello.qm.

Finally, we can test the translation:
\code
qmlviewer -translation hello.qm hello.qml
\endcode


You can see a complete example and source code in the \l{declarative/i18n}{QML Internationalization example}.
