OS localization

[AlexK]

Hi All,

I saw "cupcake" brunch in Android OS with several localizations... Can
anyone provide instructions how to add additional localization into
OS?

How I understand localizations that on current moment supported by
"cupcake" brunch are hard-coded in *.c or *.cpp file...
Fast search give we understanding that localizations extracting low-
level class/method ResTable::parse...
But where I have to place declaration of the additional localization
to make it available in list for Settings app?!

I'll appreciate any help. My localization for all application is
mostly completed and I want to commit my changes soon, but that
hardcoded part delays my release.

I'll provide Ukraine language localization for Android OS.

The settings app just shows you all of the locales that are available in the platform resources.  Adding strings for a new locale should automatically have those shown in settings.

You tell the build system which locale resources to include when it does the build...  unfortunately I can't help you on that part, but maybe someone else can.

Hi,

Thanks for explanation Dianne, I expect something like that...
I think that much better to investigate deep core to be 100% sure that
my work will be completed and easy mergable.

Thanks
