    maybe at a push you could get a command line app working with hxcpp that would run on windows (but built on linux), but i dont see how that would work for wx...
  • b
    it would need the windows system headers for example... which even if you put on the linux box, would almost certainly fail to compile
  • b
    i do wonder how much of that is wrapped in dlls though... no idea...
  • b
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • b
    well, it looks like its possible using just wx... no idea about the cpp hxcpp spits out though
  • a
    alright
  • b
    first thing to try i would guess would be to see if you can compile a hello world console app on linux that would run on windows
  • b
    my personal guess is not that easily... but, since i have zero experience with trying, i may well be totally off there
  • a
    is there a recommended way of localizing haxeui apps?
  • b
    there is just recently actually, but i still havent written up the guide... its fairly simple though
  • b
    something like this in a module.xml:
  • b
    Copy code
    xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<module>
    <resources>
        <resource path="/assets/locale" prefix="locale" />
    </resources>
    
    <locales>
        <locale id="en" resource="locale/en.properties">
        </locale>
        <locale id="en_pt" resource="locale/en_pt.properties">
        </locale>
        <locale id="es" resource="locale/es.properties">
        </locale>
    </locales>
</module>

    (you can also have multiple nodes under each node)
  • b
    and then its just 
    <button text="this is {{some_string}} and {{another_string, 20}}" />
  • b
    with something like:
    Copy code
    some_string=bob
another_string=tim {0}

    stupid question, where do i put module.xml? and does the locale directory go in assets or the project root?
  • b
    so the module.xml just needs to go somewhere in your classpath (like 
    src
    ) and the assets will be relative to your project root...
  • a
    ok
  • b
    you'll need git versions as that stuff isnt released yet (not sure if you are already using git versions)
  • a
    i think i am
  • b
    would be interested to hear your mileage... its very new, so still some kinks to iron out
  • b
    what backend are you using? (not sure it matters to be honest)
  • a
    hxwidgets
  • b
    ok, interesting... not sure if done any really deep testing there yet
  • a
    for some reason when im trying the example you posted, it just shows 
    {{localization_key}}
    and not the localized text. do i need to tell it about my module.xml file or do i just put it in src and thats it?
  • b
    defo some issues, menu didnt update for example... and i got a crash, but might be something else
  • a
    oh right thats a thing. completely forgot about that example
  • b
    no, thats not an example, its just something i have locally
  • b
    you sure you have latest git versions?
