Hi
I am still new in this industry. I just finished my diploma.

I want to know about application localization. From where i work they created an application that have form for every language based on that each language character differ in height and length, and from my point of view this is not realistic.

So i need to find a way to do this.

Please help.

Delphi has its own Integrated Translation Environment (ITE). But it is usualy not a good choice - it is restricted and inconvenient.

We use Korzh's Localizer tool. The strength points (as for me) are:
- allows on-the-fly translation
- does not require to put any controls on your forms
- translates the resourcestrings with no additional movements
- allows end-users to create/modify the translations
- support automatical translation using Google API

Hope my answer is useful.

There are multiple approaches to localization, in Delphi, and in other languages. creating multiple forms is one of them.

but, usually, two approaches are used most :

1. localized xmls
2. localization components

as a usefull component, you can use :

which makes life easier for you.
but you can still do everything by yourself : creating xml files for different languages, and loading caption from appropriate xml on runtime, etc.
