[xwiki-users] Localization module: can we have a translation string refer to another translation string ? - xwiki-users@xwiki.org

20 May 2013

Hi,

For some quality reasons I assigned to myself, I use the following
translations for my app:

MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb=Max number of mails to load
in a session
mailarchive.loadingSession.fields.maxMailsNb.label=$services.localization.render('MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb')

The first one has the name expected for XClass fields mapping, the second
has the name I expect for a form field translation key. But as their
content must be the same in my case, I refer the one from the second.

But when trying to display that in a page, I use:

$services.localization.render('mailarchive.loadingSession.fields.maxMailsNb.label')

... and it shows:

$services.localization.render('MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb')

Is there a way around ? I tried to add "{{velocity}}" around the second
translation value, but of course it complains about nested scripts...

Thanks,
Jeremie
