roResourceManager
The roResourceManager is used for managing strings in multiple languages.
Object creation: The roResourceManager object is created with a single
filename parameter that specifies the name of
the file that contains all of the localized resource strings required by the user. This file must be in UTF-8 format.
CreateObject("roResourceManager", filename As String)
Interfaces: ifResourceManager
The interface ifResourceManager provides the following:
•
SetLanguage(language_identifier As String) As Boolean: Instructs the roResourceManager object
to use the specified language. False is returned if there are no resources associated with the specified language.
•
GetResource(resource_identifier As String) As String: Returns the resource string in the current
language for a given resource identifier.
•
GetFailureReason() As String: Yields additional useful information if a function return indicates an error.
•

At present, roResourceManager is primarily used for localizing the roClockWidget. The resource file passed in during
creation has the following format for each string entry:
