HowTo Load ResourceBundles

[Kai Klesatschke-2]

Hello everybody,

I integrated the ICU framework into my app to be unicode aware and to
externalize strings. I have a to locale files root.txt and de.txt with
nor further bundle structure. I compile the txt files with genrb and
package them together with pkgdata. The result is a myfile.dat. What do
I have to do to get the data in the generated file loaded with "new
ResourceBundle(...)"?

Im using VC7.1 as IDE and the ICU C++ API.

Regards

Nobody out there who can help a ICU newbie to get it integrated? I read
the user guide but I didn't find a description how to get the thing
working at runtime.

UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
mpResourceBundle = new ResourceBundle( "root", error );

I always get the error that the resource bundle is missing. I have to
simple txt files compiled with genrb and packed with pakgdata:

root.txt
root {
  msg1 {"first msg"}
  msg2 {"second msg"}
}

de.txt
de {
  msg1 {"erste msg"}
  msg2 {"zweite msg"}
}

I get root.res and de.res from genrb and mymsgs.dat,.dll from pkgdata.
But I have no clue what I must do to get the resources in the generated
files loaded with the ResourceBundle ctor.

You may find the "Getting Started with ICU" tutorial helpful.
http://icu-project.org/docs/papers/GettingStartedwithICU_iuc28.ppt

Pages 23-27 will be helpful for you.  Page 27 will probably help you the
most.

Thanks very much for your reply. I think I already had a look into the
ppt. I read the pages 23-27 again and one of the issues I missed all the
time is not mentioned.

I had to set the application data directory before ICU initialization
and resource loading, to get the framework find my dat file. The problem
of the ICU doc is not missing information but structure. The docs about
resource bundles don't point to the docs about ICU data, which is
necessary to read if someone wants to use custom resource bundles in dat
files.

Is there a place I could upload a short step-by-step description how to
use resource bundles?

-------
1. Read about how to setup resources with externalized string:
   http://icu-project.org/userguide/ResourceManagement.html

   root.txt
   de.txt

2. Compile the resources and package them to a dat file.

   root.res
   de.res
   package.dat

3. Read about how to load ICU dat files:
   http://icu-project.org/userguide/icudata.html

   UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
   u_setDataDirectory("dir/that/contains/your/datfiles")
   u_init(&error)
   new ResourceBundle( "package", error );
