Translation

First,

hello to Yii comunity!

Many thanks to the developers. Yii framework is fantastic. That said,

I’d kindly ask for some help:

I have managed to setup language switching and I use "en", "sr_yu", "sr"

in yii framework/messages folder there are sr_yu and sr_sr folders.

it’s confusing. I keep source language set to “00” and have model Attributes translated to english, serbian latin and serbian cyrillic.

sr_yu should be latin (and that works perfectly)

but sr_sr doesn’t work when referenced as “sr_sr” … it works with just “sr”

BUT … funny thing is that YII transations don’t work this way. for example, “Home” on breadcrumbs (english)

translates to "Početna" as sr_yu (Serbian Latin) but when I switch to serbian cyrillic (sr) - my webapp transaltions work fine (translate to cyrillic) but "home" breadcrumb stays untranslated. So I changed "sr" to "sr_sr"

but then Yii refuses to ackgnowledge such locale exists with error:

here is the error:


 Локализација није препозната (unrecognized locale) "sr_sr".

097     protected function __construct($id)

098     {

099         $this->_id=self::getCanonicalID($id);

101         $dataFile=$dataPath.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$this->_id.'.php';

102         if(is_file($dataFile))

103             $this->_data=require($dataFile);

104         else

105             throw new CException(Yii::t('yii','Unrecognized locale "{locale}".',array('{locale}'=>$id)));

106     }

114     public static function getCanonicalID($id)

115     {

116         return strtolower(str_replace('-','_',$id));

117     }

The error is minor and easily solvable I’m sure but I don’t want to touch yii framwork sources in order to fix it. I’m a beginner and I know that is bad practice.

Please advise or explain how is Serbian language exactly differenciated (sr_yu - latin sr_sr - cyrillic … what is "sr" ?)

my configuration:

‘languages’=>array(‘en’=>‘English’, ‘sr_yu’=>‘Srpski latinica’, ‘sr’ => ‘Српски ћирилица’),

‘sourceLanguage’=>‘00’,

‘language’=>‘en’,

I also stumbled upon config.php in yii/framework/messages folder.

‘languages’=>array(‘fi’,‘zh_cn’,‘zh_tw’,‘ca’,‘de’,‘el’,‘es’,‘sv’,‘he’,‘nl’,‘pt’,‘pt_br’,‘ru’,‘it’,‘fr’,‘ja’,‘pl’,‘hu’,‘ro’,‘id’,‘vi’,‘bg’,‘lv’,‘sk’,‘uk’,‘ko_kr’,‘kk’,‘cs’),

as you can see, there is no sr_sr but also no sr_yu … (and sr_yu afaik works fine).

what gives ?
