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.
