Are there any tools to do Pseudotranslation of resouce bundles?

I want to test if the Java code for one of our products is internationalized. For that, I would like to use a dummy translation or pseudotranslation of the resource bundle. Are there any free/cheap tools to do the pseudotranslation?
I also looked at machine translation tools but for this I need to extract the translatable text, translate it and put it back.
Any ideas? suggestions?
THANKS!
Gladys

I have never found a completely reliable "pseudo-translator". No doubt someone will try and write one one day, but for every i18n project I've ever worked on, we've rung up a university or something and got ourselves a translator. It's proven a lot simpler than trying to trawl the Net for something that I'm not even sure exists.
The JILKit is good for what it does, but it is buggy, and is no longer supported by Sun, AFAIK. They nowadays prefer you to use the tools in Forte.
As for language choice, I've used the following steps in the past.
1) Have a list of fonts that are capable of displaying each language.
2) Look for these fonts on startup.
3) Out of the fonts you've found construct a list of available languages that you'll allow the user to pick from.
4) Once the user has chosen, create a new Locale that matches the language the user has picked.
5) Load the ResourceBundle using this Locale.
I've tried to switch languages mid-execution in the past, and under current JDKs this just doesn't work. I've seen a few solution claims, but I've either found they haven't worked, or I haven't had the chance to test them out yet.
The best solution is to simply make the user quit and restart to get a different language. I find there isn't much call for a user to be able to switch languages halfway through the execution of an app anyway.
Hope that helps!

  • Are there any tools from NI can generate the pass-through layer (IVI class driver) for IVI class specific driver?

    IVI class driver (layer) will provide interchangeable feature for a IVI class specific driver. It would work as a pass-through layer and finally make calls to the IVI class specific driver. Since there could be a lot of functions to be passed through. Are there any tools from NI (Labwindows/CVI or Labview) can do this ?
    Thanks a lot. 
    BTW: the IVI class specific driver interface is generated from Labwindows/CVI tools.

    Hi Chris,
    Yes, I did.  To support interchangability, from my understanding of the IVI specs, there should be another layer IVI-C class driver on top of this IVI class specific driver. As in the IVI‑3.1: Driver Architecture Specification:
    Although IVI‑C class drivers export inherent,
    base, and extension capabilities, they do not actually implement them. Except
    for a few inherent functions and attributes defined exclusively for class
    drivers, class driver functions and attributes provide a pass‑through layer to
    the IVI‑C specific driver. An IVI‑C specific driver is responsible for
    implementing the operations of functions and attributes and for communicating
    with the instrument. The IVI‑C specific instrument driver contains the
    information for controlling the instrument, including the command strings,
    parsing code, and valid ranges of each instrument setting"
    So where is this IVI-C class driver and how is it created and communicate with my class specific driver?
    Thanks a lot.
    Cheers,
    IVI‑3.1: Driver Architecture Specification

  • Are there any tools for data encryption and decryption ?

    Hi,

    Encrypting a password is itself not secure. Anything that can be encrypted can be decrypted. That is why Oracle itself DOES NOT encrypt passwords.
    Surprised??
    Here's what Oracle does with passwords, and what others should be doing if they have to store them.
    When the password is created, the presented password - clear text - is concatenated with the username. The resulting character string is then passed through a one-way hashing function. It is that hashed value that is stored. Then when a user presents his credentials to log on to the system, the presented credentials are combined and hashed in the same manner as when the password was created, and the resulting hash value compared to the stored value.

  • Are there any tools for optimizing placement of Airport Base Station

    I have both a Airport Extreme B/G and a Airport Extreme N unit. I also have several Airport Express units on the network. Does any one know of any tools (Hardware or Software) that can be used to identify the best physical placement of Airport Units in a multi-story building. I need to find where the connections are breaking down and where the dead spots are located. My network works but has random problems and now that I have an Apple TV the problem is worse. If I cluster everything together in one room it works like it should. Once I place the units where I need them it breaks down.
    There must be some tools that are available that can assist in the physical placement issue.

    You can use something like AP Grapher to determine where wireless network coverage is working well.

  • Are there any tools to provide hirarchical infos on TS Seqs?

    Hi all,
    I have a rather large TS project within 3 different sequence files. Involves about 130 sequences and about 200 support VIs as well as some support DLLs.
    Recently I had to change the function prototype and the hirarchy of some of the DLLs. This was quite easy to expand and 'repair' in the VI hirarchy, but I am still stuck in the corrections needed at TS level. I am missing a tool that shows the calling hirarchie within my TS project.
    With such a tool I could directly spot what changes in a particular sequence would create potential problems in its callers. It was even better when TS would have a kind of 'autoupdate' when renaming a sequence like it exists in LabVIEW.
    In my case I got some communicati
    on DLLs that based on USB. Consequently they are called USB-commxxx.dll. Its LV-callers are called USB-Commxxx.VI and its callinfg sequences are called USB-commxxx. Later we got another set of DLLs using serial communication and a naming convention of S-commxxx. There is a kind of wrapper DLL that handles some special 'bootloader' mode communication end users of our SW are not allowed to use. This DLL is named and called like BL-commXXX and has to use a different prototype, but will finally call the DLLs USB-comm and s-comm.
    So I had renamed my LV-interface VIs and the complete hirarchy was updated. I also renamed my sequences, but the sequence hirarchy was not updated. Got lots of error messages. Had to copy them to a temporary table in order to have it visibel while repairing 'em.
    Any hints on how to make this easier and more stringent.
    Any strategic hints on how to devellop large projects? Buying external expertise can't always be a good solution as they need to get involved d
    uring devellopment of the potential UUTs.
    Any hints are welcome!
    Greetings from Germany!

    Kyle,
    take a look at the hierarchical view in LabVIEW and implement as many of its features as possibel.
    The best thing, if possibel, was a kind of 'Project hIrarchy eXplorer' (PIX ;-) ).
    In my recent project there's a LabVIEW-driven Operator Interface, a hierarchy of three sequence files ('myParallelmodel' as base lib, 'UUT_Tools' as test lib and 'VG_Tests' as device-specific test sequence) and lots of helper VIs, device drivers etc. Also IVI- (DMMs, Switches) and other devices and their drivers.
    I'd love to see all those modules down to (top of) driver level. Maybe the TS engine just as one central module, but included. Might result in tree-like view with branched roots and a trunk (TS engine) and a branched crown.
    I have thought of preparing such a t
    ool by myself, but this seems an incredible amount of work I cannot take into consideration at the moment. But it should not be impossibel to 'traverse' down those sequence files and build a list of steps together with their callers and calees. Coming down to all the proxy_callers for called LabVIEW VIs I would have to stop because of no open API to the LabVIEW hierarchical window (AFAIK). But YOU could probably access it and generate a coupled hierarchy.
    Hope this is clear enough.
    Don't hesitate to ask more specific Q's, even by private mail (u dot frenz at getemed dot de)

  • Are there any tools available to find the Server's availability?

    I have been trying to find out a tool/script to figure out the server's complete availability. Please be noted that I need to find only the complete availability for the whole month say July-2014, And there
    are many other reasons that some of these servers would get rebooted every alternate day. It would be sufficient even if I am able to find the total downtime of the server in the whole month from which I can calculate the availability. Please be noted that
    I need to calculate only the server availability and not for any application/service availability. I know we can get the availability report from SCOM 2012. But I have ~3000 Servers which are not in any monitoring tool in fact. I even tried if we can have
    any sysinternals tools but no luck. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Hiya,
    The Event Viewer will hold events regarding shutdown and startup. You should work on event id's 6005 and 6006.
    Hopefully your 3000 servers has remote powershell enabled or at least some other way of remotely getting the information.
    Basically you should be able to create something like:
    For each connected 6006/6005 events within a given time spand - get the time difference and add all those together.

  • Are there any Tools for changing settings of the PMU?

    Hello everybody,
    does anyone know a tool to access PMU-Settings?
    As the manual says, my PowerBook does only recharge my battery when it is below 95%. I would like to change that, so charging will commence only below 20% or so.
    With 95% I always have to remove my battery when on AC to prevent it being reloaded 4 or 5 times a day from e.g. 80% up.
    I would just like to save charging cycles and by that extend battery life.
    Thanks for any ideas.
    Andreas

    Hi Andreas --
    I'm not aware of any way to alter the re-charge settings of your PowerBook's Power Management Unit (or any other of its settings).
    However, in light of your stated concern about "saving charging cycles," I don't think you have anything to be worried about.
    Here's an excerpt from Apple's Lithium Ion Battery support page concerning the definition of a battery's "charging cycle:"
    Charge Cycle. Using and recharging 100% of battery capacity equals one full charge cycle.
    A charge cycle means using all of the battery’s power, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could listen to your iPod for a few hours one day, using half its power, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two, so you may take several days to complete a cycle. Each time you complete a charge cycle, it diminishes battery capacity slightly, but you can put both notebook and iPod batteries through many charge cycles before they will only hold 80% of original battery capacity. As with other rechargeable batteries, you may eventually need to replace your battery.
    My read of the above is that a charge cycle doesn't occur every time you recharge your battery, but rather every time you use all of your battery's power. So, it's of no moment whether your battery recharges once a day or five times a day, the critical issue is how much of the battery's power has been used on a cumulative basis.
    The link to the whole page is here is you're interested: http://www.apple.com/batteries/

  • Are there any tools that automate the conversion of SSJS to JSP?

    What about a "wrapper" servlet to run the SSJS, do they exist? We are upgrading to Iplanted Web Server 6.0 and are looking for alternatives to a re-write

    Rhino is an implementation of JS written in Java. I have only a limited amount of knowledge about it, but my understanding is that it might be helpful both in terms of a migration path (allowing you to execute JS from within Java) and in terms of code conversion (converting JS to Java).

    You can collect the Organizational Health in Exchange 2010 console for Exchange 2003/2007/2010 and that will list very useful information about statistics in your organization like servers, databases, CALs, recipient, feature used etc...

    No, there are no gurantees. The capabilitty exists to retrive deleted data from an iPhone, but like many things in life it is not 100% successful all the time. Be careful, there are a lot of scam artists out there. They take your money & retrive nothing. This guy is one of the best in the business, but he does not work for people in the private sector. Perhaps he can recommend a service to you. But, as already pointed out, you're looking at thousands of dollars out of pocket whether these folks are successful or not:

  • Are there any examples of queres or reports for the Access DB TS can generate?

    I am currently useing the default TestStand SPC database storage routine to store the results of all runs. Are there any tools, queries, reports, etc. to help me post process this database? I thought I would check here before making something myself. Mainly looking for something that will do a scatter plot for a certian test so I can see where all the data is falling within the limits.

    Currently NI does not have any post processing tools to assist you in formating the result information specifically for TestStand databases. Obviously using LabVIEW or LW/CVI or some other programming language you could write your own program to do such post processing.

  • Are there any 3rd Party Cloud Application Readiness Assessment tools in the market today?

    I have couple of interrelated questions here:
    1
    Are there any 3rd party tools, which do Cloud Readiness  Assessments for on-premises Applications. I am looking for names of any such tools, if they exist, which thoroughly analyse on-premises applications, and generate detailed reports on whether the
    application is ready for moving to the cloud (and why?), or if it needs some changes before moving (which changes?), or if the application needs major changes (which?) or cannot be move to cloud in its present form. The cloud here could be Azure (1st pref)
    or AWS (2nd pref).
    2
    From the tools named in response to above questions, which are the ones which can be used for doing applications assessments for a large number of on-premises apps in most efficient way? Do such tools actually exist? Imagine scenario that an enterprise customer
    comes to me and asks that they want to check the cloud readiness for 3000 applications in shortest possible time - What tool will you recommend for such massive assessments?

    Hi Bahree,
    Microsoft does not suggest  a specific third-party product. However, we do use them, and see lots of other customers use them.
    Paraleap: Monitoring tool - http://www.paraleap.com/AzureWatch , You may browse to these site and few others to learn more, and chat with their folks directly on how they support Windows Azure.
    I see that Microsoft has published a self-help diagnostic package for running Windows-based virtual machines (VMs) in Azure IaaS and this this diagnostic package does not require opening a Support Request with
