#6113: Locale Kit needs a way to load catalogs from libraries -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: zooey | Owner: pulkomandy Type: bug | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Kits/Locale Kit | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Platform: All Blockedby: | Patch: 0 Blocking: 5889 | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment(by zooey): Replying to [comment:2 pulkomandy]: > Ok. > It is possible to load a catalog by hand if you provide it with a signature (this is what we do already for thing like StringForSize). Do we? I can't seem to find it. All I can see is that we are calling LocaleRoster::GetSystemCatalog(), which in turn uses the private method LocaleRoster::LoadCatalog(). But since that is private, no one else can use it to load a catalog with an explicit signature. > For now this stuff is gathered in a single catalog attached to the locale library, but it is likely better to split it over to other libs. Yes, only libbe should use the 'system' catalog (which we could rename to libbe.catalog), any other library should use its own catalog. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6113#comment:3> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
