[gaim-migrate @ 5601]
i missed that rant when i looked at this the first 2 times. it was MY fault
that the original es.po patch, submitted to debian, was not committed. i was
not yet on the debian Gaim PTS, and had committed a translation update that
broke the one submitted to debian just before i was notified that the debian
submitted patch existed. any rant about that patch not being accepted should
be directed to/at me not robot101. i addressed this once in a reply to the
aforementioned patch, but apparently the submitter is too dense to figure it
out.
hopefully this is the last time i will have to address the fact that
because i get translation patches from a number of different sources, i
sometimes break one patch by applying a different one.

Notes on keeping GAIM OS independant ------------------------------------ General ------- - Use G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S and G_DIR_SEPARATOR for paths - Use g_getenv, g_snprintf, g_vsnprintf - Use gaim_home_dir instead of g_get_home_dir or g_getenv("HOME") - Make sure when including win32dep.h that it is the last header to be included. - Open binary files when reading or writing with 'b' mode. e.g: fopen("somefile", "wb"); Not doing so will open files in windows using defaut translation mode. i.e. newline -> <CR><LF> Paths ----- - DATADIR, LOCALEDIR & LIBDIR are defined in wingaim as functions. Doing the following will therefore break the windows build: printf("File in DATADIR is: %s\n", DATADIR G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S "pic.png"); it should be: printf("File in DATADIR is: %s%s%s\n", DATADIR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S, "pic.png"); PLUGINS & PROTOS ---------------- - G_MODULE_EXPORT all functions which are to be accessed from outside the scope of its "dll" or "so". (E.G. gaim_plugin_init) - G_MODULE_IMPORT all global variables which are located outside your dynamic library. (E.G. connections) (Not doing this will cause "Memory Access Violations" in Win32)
