Hello masters, I'm trying to translate the MHD messages, but any success in my tests. :-/
My steps (using MHD from trunk): # build + install ./bootstrap && ./configure && sudo make install-strip && sudo ldconfig # generate the POT file xgettext --keyword=_ --language=C --add-comments --sort-output -o libmicrohttpd.pot src/microhttpd/*.c # generate the PO file msginit --input=libmicrohttpd.pot --locale=pt_BR --output=libmicrohttpd.po Now, I open the .po file in the Poedit program and find the message "Failed to bind to port" as showed in the following picture: https://img42.com/VS64t After clicking in Save button, Poedit generates the .mo file used in my test: # creating + building + running the test mkdir -p test/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES mv libmicrohttpd.mo libmicrohttpd.po test/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES cd test cat >main.c <<EOF #include <stdio.h> #include <locale.h> #include <libintl.h> #include <microhttpd.h> static int ahc_echo(void *cls, struct MHD_Connection *cnc, const char *url, const char *method, const char *version, const char *upload_data, size_t *upload_data_size, void **ptr) { return MHD_NO; } int main() { setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); bindtextdomain("libmicrohttpd", "locale"); textdomain("libmicrohttpd"); MHD_start_daemon(MHD_USE_SELECT_INTERNALLY | MHD_FEATURE_MESSGES, 80, NULL, NULL, &ahc_echo, NULL, MHD_OPTION_END); return 0; } EOF gcc -o test main.c -lmicrohttpd export LANGUAGE=pt_BR export LANG=pt_BR ./test Failed to bind to port 80: Permission denied OK, now let's go debug it checking errors: strace -e trace=open ./test open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/local/lib/libmicrohttpd.so.12", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so.30", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libp11-kit.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libidn.so.11", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtasn1.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnettle.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhogweed.so.4", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgmp.so.10", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgpg-error.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libffi.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/etc/gcrypt/hwf.deny", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/usr/share/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5 open("/usr/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/pt/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/pt/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Failed to bind to port 80: Permission denied +++ exited with 0 +++ I.e, any call to the libmicrohttpd.mo file. :-/ So, how to translate MHD properly? Thank you! P.S: Looking at mhd_options.h I found the following comment: /** * Macro to make it easy to mark text for translation. Note that * we do not actually call gettext() in MHD, but we do make it * easy to create a ".po" file so that applications that do want * to translate error messages can do so. */ #define _(String) (String) sorry my ignorance, but, if MHD don't call gettext(), how will it translate the massages? o.O -- Silvio Clécio
