| Summary | 0017064: Document the difference between GetText() and GetText2() | ||||
| Description | the gettext plugins can have a GetText() or a GetText2() function. without knowing the difference between the two, it's hard to say, but i guess that for 1.7.0 it would be nice to have only one of both (i guess that the version 2 is the one that should be used) would it be possible to document the difference? if you agree that this is a good goal, it would be useful if you could shortly describe what is needed for migrating from GetText() to getText2() and we could publish this as a task that contributors could work on. | ||||

if there is a will for a migration, i would try to contribute a set of tests to make sure that the changes do not affect the inner working of the plugins. - make sure that all importers can be used from the scripter - collect a set of simple demo files for the tests - create .sla files with the current code - compare the result with new code this could help, setting up some sort of automated tests for the scribus code. |
