Topic:
Windows 7: COM Object and Command Line Failed

Support

Windows 7: Failure to create the RC-WinTrans application object and run the command line.

Description:

The RC-WinTrans (X8 or 9) application COM object cannot be created on Windows 7 and the command line tool ("rwtcmd.exe") cannot start RC-WinTrans to execute a command.

Environment:
Operating system: Windows 7
RC-WinTrans Versions: X8, 9.0 and 9.1

Cause:
The RC-WinTrans application (COM object) and RC-WinTrans type library are not registered in the Windows 7 registry. The registration fails while installing RC-WinTrans (setup). No installation error is reported.

Solution:
The Windows compatibility mode "XP-mode" must be set for the RC-WinTrans executable file (.exe) and this file must be registered once again.
  • Step 1: Compatibility Mode

    - Set the compatibility mode "XP-mode" for the RC-WinTrans executable (.exe) file ("RCWinTrans9.exe" or "RWTX8.exe").
    See Image 1... and Image 2...

  • Step 2: Register RC-WinTrans

    - Start the Windows cmd (DOS prompt box) using "Run as administrator".
    See Image 3...

    - Move to the RC-WinTrans installation folder (here: Version 9)
    ...\RC-WinTrans\RC-WinTrans 9 Global\program\

    - Run the command "rcwintrans9.exe /register"
    See Image 4...
Check:
The CheckReg.exe tool can be used to check if the RC-WinTrans application and the RC-WinTrans type library is registered in the Windows registry.
Note: Only the RC-WinTrans Global Edition will be registered for COM automation. The Translator and Demo Editions will not be registered.

Run the Check Tool...

Hello Samuel,

this is a known problem. During the installation of RC-WinTrans on Windows 7 the RC-WinTrans application object is not successfully added to the Windows 7 registry.

Check the "Known Issues" section here in the forum for a description of the problem and its solution:

Hello!

Our knowledge of this error message indicates that the database is corrupt and cannot be fixed.

We would have tried using the Access "Repair" function, as you have already done.

If you want, you can zip the database file and send it to support@schaudin.com for a check. However I'm not very optimistic that the database can be repaired.

WPF Translation

Hello MichaelTR,

1. How can I choose this language at program startup?

Use:
System.Globalization.CultureInfo aCultureInfo = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en");
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = aCultureInfo;

This is the same as your code I think.

You can test switching the language of your application by using the small LocTester application.
When using LocTester you do not need to implement setting the language with "CurrentUICulture".

LocTester:

2. Use the xaml files as a source

> How can I now integrate these files into my app?

It is not possible to add localized versions of an XAML file to a Visual Studio project like you can with RESX files.
We would also like to have the option of working with translated XAML files directly but unfortunately it can't be done.

3. WPFProjects

> BTW: I already took a look at the samples in WPFProjects folder. It's not possible to build these projects, because of missing files.

These are not sample projects. They are two Visual Studio projects used by RC-WinTrans to create a binary BAML file from an XAML file.

Hello MichaelTR,

there is something else...
The XAML elements in your WPF software project (Visual Studio) must have "x:Uid" attributes to be localizable. RC-WinTrans can read (and translate) the WPF resources without having the "x:Uid" attributes but the WPF resources in the target satellite DLL (created by RC-WinTrans) will keep the source text if no "x:Uid" attributes exists.

You can use RC-WinTrans to prepare a Visual Studio WPF project (the XAML files) with the required "x:Uid" attributes.
Use: "Tools" | "WPF" | ".NET Project update "x:Uid" attributes..."
Select your Visual Studio project file (e.g. for C#: .csproj). Then rebuild your WPF project to create the assembly (EXE or DLL) newly.

Support, Schaudin.com

Hello MichaelTR,

1.
> <UICulture>CultureYouAreCodingWith</UICulture> in your .csproj file
> I now found a problem, which maybe a bug in RCWinTrans.
> If I do this, RCWinTrans cannot find any WPF resources in the exe anymore

No, not a bug. This is correct.

When using the <UICulture> in the project file (.csproj) Visual Studio builds a satellite DLL and puts the resources into it. The application assembly no longer contains the resources.
When using a satellite DLL for the default resources you must translate this satellite DLL with RC-WinTrans- not the EXE.
My suggestion: leave the default resource in the EXE. Do not use the <UICulture>.

.

2.
> "Tools" | "WPF" | ".NET Project update "x:Uid" attributes..."
> Doesn't do anything.

Nothing happens in RC-WinTrans but for your Visual Studio project. RC-WinTrans call the msbuild.exe (Microsoft command line tool) to add the "x:Uid" attributes to your VS project's source XAML files. Check the XAML files -- the elements should have "x:Uid" attribute now.

RC-WinTrans writes the output from the msbuild.exe tool to the RC-WinTrans Output window.

Yes. You are right.

Hello MichaelTR,

the reason may be that the translator has been given the project definition file (.rwtproject) and not the database file (.fsmdb).
Did you send him the .fsmdb database file? The .fsmdb file is the only file your translator needs.

We cannot reproduce a problem using German umlauts in the path or in the file name.

I think there was such a problem (a bug) for the target language with the language code "zh-CHS." I still do not know the details. Try it with other target languages and see if it works.

Importing data from Excel

Support
Support
Administrator
Hello lakuda!

The operation was designed with the requirement that the Excel spreadsheet contains the same source language as the source language in the RC-WinTrans translation project.

Checking this with your sample, I found it works when the Excel sheet contains Russian (ru) and Spanish (es) but not the English (en) source language. I was able to make it work using a trick in the Export Assistant. I will post a description of it here shortly for you to verify.

FYI: We already have plans to remake the import/export function for Excel by the end of this year. I think it is a good idea to eliminate the source language requirement- maybe just one (target) language and the resource names (IDs).

Loosing Translation if Moving Control in WinForms

Support
Support
Administrator
This is how the RC-WinTrans data update module is specified and made to work.

The data update module identifies a control by its item ID and also by the item's parent control(s).
When the control has a new parent control it is taken as a new control and the existing translation for this control gets lost.

Yes. We've verified this.
A German umlaut in the path name causes this error when the Windows system uses a code page other than Western code page 1252.

Thank you rboutilier for reporting this.
We've fixed it so that the project name will be quoted -- it works now.
The fix will be included in the build version following "9.1.0.993 March 2011".

WPF GUI Editor and .NET 4.0 Assemblies
------------------------------------------------
This is correct. The WPF Editor uses the Microsoft VSTA 2.0 environment which only supports .NET up to .NET 3.5.

Note: WPF windows from .NET 4.0 assemblies can also be displayed and edited as long as the WPF window does not use a component/control which only supports .NET 4.0.

We still do not know when Microsoft VSTA support for .NET 4.0 will become available. However we are already in the process of improving the WPF Editor so that Visual Studio 2010 can be used alternatively.
The VSTA is included with the RC-WinTrans WPF GUI Editor whereas the Visual Studio 2010 would need to be available on your system.
.

"clr-namespace"
-------------------

Right. The reason is that the "clr-namespace" is included in the XAML file given to the WPF Editor.
To fix this we will send you an updated "BamlConv.dll" file (file version: 1.2.4.0) by e-mail.
Replace the DLL in your RC-WinTrans installation. You will need to run the "Update Database" command for the project or remove your assembly from the project and add it in again.
