Configuration of the Borland Delphi/C++ Builder Add-in

The configuration can be set globally, or locally for selected string lists.

For global configuration, select Tools > Add-Ins, to call up the dialog box for the configuration of add-ins. Select the file Parser Embarcadero Delphi/C++ Builder and click Setup....

For local configuration select one or several source files with .NET data in the project view, then in the menu select Project, then Properties. In the properties dialog, click on the button Options. If you change the local configuration of a string list, you can use this setting as the global configuration by clicking on the button Set as default. For new string lists, the global configuration will be used automatically.

Resource Character Coding

The add-in tries to determine the compiler version which was used to generate source file. For resource-only files the detection can fail and data will not be extracted correctly. In this case you can set the compiler version manually with Embarcadero 5 or earlier or Embarcadero 6 or later.

Extracting binary files

Apart from text lists, menus and dialogs, also bitmaps, icons, cursors or other binary data can be processed. Activate the option Extract bitmaps, Extract icons and cursors or Extract other binary resources if you also want to work with binary data contained in the Embarcadero files.

Additional Properties

The add-in for Borland Delphi/C++ Builder extracts all data which is usually required for the localization. In special cases however it may be necessary to extract and work on additional information. Click on Add, to add further properties which have to be extracted from the source file. In the dialog Enter Property Name you can enter the name of a property which should be extracted. Only text properties can be extracted.
