Dave thanks for the explanation. In the past I have loaded two plugins (different versions) for several reasons, testing and comparisons - what changed, and in the instance of Grib _ pi two different instances are used to load a current grib separate from a wind pressure wave grib in order to make these available to weather_routing _ pi. -- so I would like to keep the current filexibility with respect to loading multiple instances.

The s63 chart development is very exciting and I can work around it. Thanks!

So to be clear, my preference would be to allow loading two plugins of same type

Pavel at all....
Is there a Git diff (or other) command that can print the difference between two committed branches?
Why?? If I've made two changes and commit in between Git Diff will only compare between the latest change and the branch. But if I whant the sum of the changes I would like to compare between my branch and master. I can't find how to do in Git reference.
Thanks for any hint/Håkan

Hakan...
Yep... The simple: switch to one of the branches and do

git diff NAMEOFTHEOTHERBRANCH

or without the switch for any 2 branches

git diff BRANCH1 BRANCH2

or for two commits regardless of branches

git diff COMMITID1 COMMITID2

or, if you are interested in a particular file

git diff BRANCH -- <filename>

For more info you can refer to Git - git-diff Documentation or some of the countless cheat sheets, for example https://gist.github.com/iansheridan/870778
And as an aspiring developer you can also finally make an account on github to get something as colourful as for example https://github.com/nohal/OpenCPN/compare/nogl33...arpa

Pavel...<The live Wiki
Ok - As simple as that. And following your nice links I'll for sure will find a way to not list all .po changes

Many thanks /Håkan

Edit: Found it. Git's great!

[Hakan]

Please anyone advice how I build a new .pot file when new _("strings") are added to the source?
There seems to be something included in cmakelist.txt but neither cmake nor VC10 is touching the present .pot file??
Thanks Håkan

[CarCode]

/your-path-to/xgettext --force-po --package-name=opencpn --package-version=3.3.1303 --output=opencpn.pot --keyword=_ --width=80 --files-from=POTFILES.in

Is an example to get a new .pot file. Be aware of your pathes to the files however.

Then merge your old .po file with the new .pot file:

/your-path-to/msgmerge --width=80 --strict --quiet --update --backup=none --no-location -s /your-path-to/opencpn.po /your-path-to/opencpn.pot

Gerhard..
Lovely! Works fine - Many thanks (So also here is "Flag" now translated as in your AIS query)

[rgleason]

Hakan when you've got a moment would you mind posting to this thread the language internationalization (we need shorter name) process as you know it? Combined with gerhards info , we can improve the developers manual!!
Gille...Tried to explain it months ago and I did not understand. He was quite patient with my pesky question. Thanks

I have had also changed the country strings from _T("...") to _("...") in the code because these names are different in different languages.

Gerhard

[Hakan]

Gerhard..
You did..Ok. I was considered that but decided not to do so. My preferences was that the official list is a international table and if you intent to communicate with the boat the English language and the corresponding country designation are preferred? So for that reason it felt right to keep it with that.
But it could be and could not be you're right. And as usual it could be that some arguing will follow - right? A common opinion use to be the best in the "bitter" end.
Thanks Håkan

Edit. And by the way. The short ID I suppose should be left unchanged??

Rick..
Do you mean I should try to explain how I did the .pot file update from my source code?
And post that attempt to the Intenatio....long yes.. thread?
No problem if this is your intentions. Please confirm.
Håkan

[rgleason]

Yes please, it would be very good for development questions I think.
