\brief Class that serves as an interface between applications and
|
|
translators.
|
|
|
|
BTranslatorRoster gives applications access to the translation kit.
|
|
Applications can request translations and BTranslatorRoster will
|
|
automatically search for a matching translator and have it perfrom the
|
|
translation.
|
|
|
|
\warning BTranslatorRoster does not perform chaining of any sort. Only
|
|
translations that can be made by invoking a single translator are
|
|
supported.
|
|
|
|
\note BTranslationUtils provides some helper methods that perform the
|
|
interaction with BTranslatorRoster for you.
|
|
|
|
BTranslationRoster acts as a container. While in most cases the default
|
|
roster is used, it is possible to create a roster that interacts with a
|
|
custom set of translators.
