We could add such a method in MacRuby core, but I wonder if it will be really that much of a use. NSLocalizedString macros are used in Objective-C programs because they are parsed by the genstrings command-line tool, to generate the translation file. I am not sure if genstrings can be used on Ruby files. At some point we will need a l10n solution for MacRuby apps, though. I am wondering if there isn't already a Ruby library for this? (something like gettext?). Laurent On Feb 22, 2011, at 9:50 AM, Eloy Duran wrote:
Something like this:
module Kernel private
def NSLocalizedString(key, value) NSBundle.mainBundle.localizedStringForKey(key, value:value, table:nil) end end

Changing the line to return NSBundle.mainBundle.localizedStringForKey("Today", value:"Today title string", table:nil) works but NSLocalizedString is supposed to be a Foundation Function, so should be 'freely' available in MacRuby, shouldn't it?
The trouble is that NSLocalizedString is not actually a function — it's a macro, so MacRuby can't call it. It really just needs to be reimplemented, but until then the NSBundle methods are precisely equivalent.
