locale "Switzerland" is missing on the Win CE-Version of Navit

[me.yahoo.com/a/pv8mihsxm_qeyctej.olzwrzdztv#df6e0]

Hello, if I have the Locale-Settings on my Mobile (Windows Mobile 6.1) on Switzerland-German, then Navit can't find the locale. So navit is just in english and there is just a grey cross, if I want to search a Town for routing. So I must change allways the Country. If I change the mobile-settings to Germany, then Navit is in german, but I must change the Country also every time, if I want to search a town in Switzerland. Is it possible to add the locale for Switzerland-German and Switzerland-French? Thanks.

Today, I reached a solution for this problem: in navit.xml, there must be a changing:

this line:

<config xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">

must be changed to:

<config xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" language="de_CH">

so it works with the Switzerland-locales.

Hi.

Two locales (de_CH and fr_CH) have been added to the trunk ( r3263 ) and are currently being uploaded in launchpad. They should appear in tonight's builds. If you want to help completing/adapting the translations, please use ​https://translations.launchpad.net/navit/trunk

If you need help, just let us know.

Thanks for your report.

great. thanks... some translations in german and french are done.

You're welcome.

We'll have to figure a way to keep the de and de_CH translations in sync, otherwise we'll have to do the work twice (same thing for fr_CH).

Are there any differences between fr and fr_CH (and de/de_CH) ?

Otherwise we could hack something to simply copy fr to fr_CH.

There is just one big difference betweet these 2 languages: in Switzerland we don't have the ß... this is a sign for a double-S. (p.e. street: local de: Straße; local de_CH: Strasse). But you can use the de-locals also for de_CH. Everyone in Switzerland knows, what the ß meens.

The same for the locals fr and fr_CH. There are some small differences in the languages, but I think almost just for numbers (p.e. ninety: local fr: quatre-vingt-dix; local fr_CH: nonante). There are also some other differences in numbers. But the rest is in Switzerland almost the same like in France. So you can use the fr-locals also for fr_CH.

Ok. then i'll reopen the ticket until we hack the makefile to build the _CH locales automatically.

hi kazer, so, today I've installed the r3270 on my cellphone. the language-settings on my cell is: Switzerland - German. now, I've started navit with this entry in the navit.xml:

<config xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">

(this is the original entry)

But, there is still the same issue: navit is in english. And if I go to show locale, there it shows Lang=(null). And if I want to search a Town for routing, there is still a grey cross instead of the flag of the country. So I must change the country everytime. But when I change in the navit.xml the entry as here

<config xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" language="de_CH">

so it works all (but this was also so, before the locale de_CH was added). see enclosed screenshots...

Swiss - German, Swiss - French, Swiss - Italian, Swiss - Romansh were all added to the NLS lookup table in ​Revision 3623. Any SVN released after this date should support your country natively.

It would be great if you could provide translations for the various versions of Swiss :)
