The LanguageUIGeneration tool

Overview

DictionaryForMIDs supports a multi-language user interface. The texts for the different languages are stored in the file DictionaryForMIDs.languages. For a description of the format of the file DictionaryForMIDs.languages see the header of DictionaryForMIDs.languages. The file DictionaryForMIDs.languages is found in the directory src/de/kugihan/dictionaryformids/hmi_java_me/uidisplaytext.

The LanguageUIGeneration tool reads the file DictionaryForMIDs.languages and generates the files UIDisplayTextContents.java and UIDisplayTextItems.java. These two files are part of the DictionaryForMIDs source tree and are compiled like all other DictionaryForMIDs Java files.
