xlf files for other langages are removed during "rebuild"

[Former Member]

Hello all!

I wanted to translate my Web Dynpro application, developed in German, to English.

I copied *.xlf files to *_de.xlf, changed "Source language" on Header tab to American English and translates all texts on second tab.

So far everything looked correct.

I wanted to make a "Reload" of project, but I had to make "Reload and Rebuild" (I'm using NWDS 2.0.14).

After this operation all *_de.xlf files gone

Do you have idea why??

Hi,

be sure to edit the xlf in the right folder.

It's below /src/... in your project.

I once accidentally edited the files in /bin/... and they also disappeared as this is the build output folder.

May it's that simple in your case, too.

Regards

Ingo

Hi Jaroslaw,

the way to translate the texts you described is correct, "Reload/Rebuild" is the same as "Reload". However, I don't know why the translations have disappeared, the build doesn't touch them in either case. Are you you have placed the translations in the expected folder (next to the original .xlf's)? Is the behavior reproducable? If yes, just open an OSS message.
