What is the resource bundle format in Royale?
In Flex, you create a .swf file, like:
mxmlc -locale=%locale_name% -source-path=locale/{locale}
-include-resource-bundles=%bundles% -output %target%
where
o %target% = a .swf filename (i.e. myapp_en_US.swf)
o %bundles% = list of bundle names (previously generated on a compile of
the app using -resource-bundle-list=filename.txt)
o %locale_name% = en_US, etc.
o locale/{locale} = subdirectories (i.e. locale/en_US) that contain a
MYBUNDLE.properties file for each resource bundle (starts with UTF-8
BOM, then each line: key=value).
There is a default locale that is integrated into your app. Then you
can dynamically load different locale .swf files at a later time, in
ways like this:
resourceManager.loadResourceModule( "myapp_en_US.swf", true
).addEventListener(
mx.events.ResourceEvent.COMPLETE,
function completeHandler( event : mx.events.ResourceEvent ) : void
{
resourceManager.localeChain = ["en_US"];
}
);
In Royale, mxmlc won't allow that command-line (it insists on a source
filename). And I know a .swf isn't used in JS. And I don't know if a
default locale is integrated on the JS side.
So I have no idea where to start.
