Method Details

[hide private]

getTranslationsOf(self, srcName)

source code

Pure virtual method to look up the translation of a string. Returns a list of candidate strings (the translation), empty if not found.

Note that a source string can map to multiple translated strings. For example, in the French translation of Evolution, the string "Forward" can translate to both (i) "Faire suivre" for forwarding an email, and (ii) "Suivant" for the next page in a wizard.
