Version: 1.9 (using KDE KDE 3.2.92) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc-3.3.1 OS: Linux I can't make kbabel show the source context of a message string in the source view tab. All I get is "Corresponding source file not found". I tried many variations on the source paths in the project configuration dialog, but none works. Unfortunately, this very part of the configuration dialog is not documented in the manual, and there's no "what's this" help available. The variable names and the terms "path patterns" and "base folder for source code" are not at all clear to me - at least, they didn't mean what I thought. So, I don't know if source file lookup actually doesn't work or if configuration is documented poorly / presented in a misleading way. If it's a configuration issue, how do I correctly set the source paths? The file I want to translate is "/home/manuel/entw/orthanc/po/de.po". The corresponding sources are in "/home/manuel/entw/orthanc/src". The "src" directory contains some subprojects. Message locations appear in the form e.g. "orproject/charactereditpanel.cpp", referring to "/home/manuel/entw/orthanc/src/orproject/charactereditpanel.cpp". Which paths do I have to enter in the project configuration dialog?
Do you have any idea how to ease the configuration? The current one is aimed at flexibility - because sources can be structured very differently.
Hi, Use KURLRequester class as a directory chooser for "Base folder for source code". The KURLRequester mode should be KFile::Directory|KFile::ExistingOnly. Currently KBabel does not check if the typed directory actually exists.
SVN commit 465925 by goutte: Use a URL requester instead of a simple line edit widget for the base path of the source code CCBUG:86713 (This does not close the bug, as the bug reporter wnats some more help, but we are in message freeze.)

Manuel, try setting the base source folder to: /home/manuel/entw/orthanc/ and add "@CODEROOT@/src/" to the list of "Path Patterns" - actually it should be enough if it's the only one. But not that you lose the only "documentation" there by removing the other @KEYWORDS@.. ;) HTH.
I have fixed a few problems with the source references, including the bugs #114041 and #116393. As your project seems to be GNU-like, you could add following rule (however only in the current development version, which will be KBabel 1.11.1 of KDE 3.5.1): @POFILEDIR@/../@COMMENTPATH@ (This new rule is now part of the default rules for new projects.) Have a nice day!

See also bug #85885 which asks for a full documentation of the "source" configuration dialog.
For older KBabel versions, you can use: (at)PACKAGEDIR(at)/(dot)(dot)/(at)COMMENTPATH(at) Ad for a GNU(-like) project, you cannot use the catalog manager, it will not make a difference. Meanwhile, the documentation has been updated. (It will be released with KDE 3.5.1.) Have a nice day!
KBabel is no longer maintained, please use the KDE 4 translator's tool called "Lokalize" instead. For more information, please visit http://userbase.kde.org/Lokalize If this is a request for a feature which is also missing in Lokalize, please add a comment so that I can reassign the request to the Lokalize authors. You could also file a new request for Lokalize.
