About the Translation Toolkit
The Translation Toolkit is a set of tools designed to help
you translate PowerBuilder applications into other languages. It
includes a standalone translator tool that is used by the person
or group translating the text of the application.
When you use the Toolkit to create a project, a copy of each
of your application’s source libraries is created for each
project. The application’s original source libraries are
not changed.
How the Toolkit works
You work with the phrases (one or more
words of text) in an application. These phrases are in the application’s
object properties, controls, and scripts.
You use the tools to:
-
Extract phrases from
the project libraries -
Present the phrases for translation
-
Substitute translated phrases for the original phrases
in the project libraries
Using the translated project libraries, you use PowerBuilder
to build the translated application.

Toolkit.
