-II.b Converting QT .qm files

+II.b Converting .ts files from official Virtualbox

+ 

+You will need a copy of VirtualBox installed and to navigate to your VirtualBox installation folder on your computer, then to the "nls" folder.

+Otherwise, you can navigate to the URL: "https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/nls".

+You should see files which have the naming convention VirtualBox_xx.ts - where xx is the language code described above.

+If you can't find the needed language, you won't be able to add or update it in phpVirtualbox.

 

-To convert these files, you will need a copy of Qt Linguist. A google search should yield a download

-link. You will also need a copy of VirtualBox installed.

+Copy the "VirtualBox_xx.ts" file corresponding to the needed language.

 

-Open Qt Linguist. From the file menu, select Open and select All Files in the Open File dialog.

-Navigate to your VirtualBox folder on your computer, then to the nls folder. You should see files

-which have the naming convention VirtualBox_xx.qm - where xx is the language code described above.

-Select the file and click Open. Just click OK on the subsequent dialog box. Click on Save as... in

-the File menu. Save the file as a "Qt translation source" (*.ts) file.

+The script languages/source/parse_vbox_lang.php provided with phpVirtualbox can then be used to parse this ".ts" file into a ".dat" file consumable by phpVirtualBox.

 

-The script languages/source/parse_vbox_lang.php can then be used to parse a .ts file into a .dat file

-consumable by phpVirtualBox. E.g.

+Navigate to you phpVirtualbox installation folder and then to languages/source. Put the previously copied "VirtualBox_xx.ts" file there, then run the following command (you will need a working php setup) :

 

-php languages/source/pasre_vbox_lang.php VirtualBox_es.ts >es.dat

-

-The es.dat file can then be placed in the languages/source/ folder for use by phpVirtualBox.

+php parse_vbox_lang.php VirtualBox_xx.ts > xx.dat (replace xx with the language code)

 

+This will create a "xx.dat" file that should be readable by phpVirtualBox.
