 294
 295     wxLocale class encapsulates all language-dependent settings and is a
 296     generalization of the C locale concept.
 297
 298     In wxWidgets this class manages message catalogs which contain the translations
 299     of the strings used to the current language.
 300
 301     For a list of the supported languages, please see ::wxLanguage enum values.
 302     These constants may be used to specify the language in wxLocale::Init and
 303     are returned by wxLocale::GetSystemLanguage.
 304
 305     @beginWxPerlOnly
 306     In wxPerl you can't use the '_' function name, so
 307     the @c Wx::Locale module can export the @c gettext and
 308     @c gettext_noop under any given name.
 309
 310     @code
 311       # this imports gettext ( equivalent to Wx::GetTranslation
 312       # and gettext_noop ( a noop )
 313       # into your module
 314       use Wx::Locale qw(:default);
 315
 316       # ....
 317
 318       # use the functions
 319       print gettext( "Panic!" );
 320
 321       button = Wx::Button-new( window, -1, gettext( "Label" ) );
 322     @endcode
 323
 324     If you need to translate a lot of strings, then adding gettext( ) around
 325     each one is a long task ( that is why _( ) was introduced ), so just choose
 326     a shorter name for gettext:
 327
 328     @code
 329       use Wx::Locale 'gettext' = 't',
 330                      'gettext_noop' = 'gettext_noop';
 331
 332       # ...
 333
 334       # use the functions
 335       print t( "Panic!!" );
 336

 388         additional directories to the search path with AddCatalogLookupPathPrefix().

 395
 396         The second form of this method takes two additional arguments,
 397         @a msgIdLanguage and @a msgIdCharset.
 398
 399         @a msgIdLanguage specifies the language of "msgid" strings in source code
 400         (i.e. arguments to GetString(), wxGetTranslation() and the _() macro).
 401         It is used if AddCatalog() cannot find any catalog for current language:
 402         if the language is same as source code language, then strings from source
 403         code are used instead.
 404
 405         @a msgIdCharset lets you specify the charset used for msgids in sources
 406         in case they use 8-bit characters (e.g. German or French strings).
 407         This argument has no effect in Unicode build, because literals in sources are
 408         Unicode strings; you have to use compiler-specific method of setting the right
 409         charset when compiling with Unicode.
 410
 411         By default (i.e. when you use the first form), msgid strings are assumed
 412         to be in English and written only using 7-bit ASCII characters.
 413         If you have to deal with non-English strings or 8-bit characters in the
 414         source code, see the instructions in @ref overview_nonenglish.

 704     However it does have a purpose which is to mark the literal strings for the
 705     extraction into the message catalog created by @c xgettext program. Usually
 706     this is achieved using _() but that macro not only marks the string for
 707     extraction but also expands into a wxGetTranslation() call which means that
 708     it cannot be used in some situations, notably for static array
 709     initialization.
 710
 711     Here is an example which should make it more clear: suppose that you have a
 712     static array of strings containing the weekday names and which have to be
 713     translated (note that it is a bad example, really, as wxDateTime already
 714     can be used to get the localized week day names already). If you write:
 715
 716     @code
 717     static const char * const weekdays[] = { _("Mon"), ..., _("Sun") };
 718     ...
 719     // use weekdays[n] as usual
 720     @endcode
 721
 722     The code wouldn't compile because the function calls are forbidden in the

 724
 725     @code
 726     static const char * const weekdays[] = { wxTRANSLATE("Mon"), ...,
 727     wxTRANSLATE("Sun") };
 728     ...

 730     @endcode
 731
 732     Note that although the code @b would compile if you simply omit
 733     wxTRANSLATE() in the above, it wouldn't work as expected because there
 734     would be no translations for the weekday names in the program message
 735     catalog and wxGetTranslation() wouldn't find them.
