+ \title Translation Example
+
+ \brief Using translations to localize installer pages and licenses.
+
+ \image qtifw-examples-translations.png
+
+ \e{Translations} illustrates how to use translations to localize the output
+ of component scripts and component UI files into another language. It also shows
+ how to select the license according to the system language.
+
+ To add a new language, you first need to create a translation source (TS) file for
+ the package that contains all the translatable strings. Run the following command in
+ the package's meta directory:
+
+ \code
+ lupdate installscript.qs page.ui -ts <language>.ts
+ \endcode
+
+ Replace <language> with the two letter lowercase code for the language you want to
+ translate to. After finishing translating you need to use lrelease on that
+ TS file to generate the binary Qt messages (QM) file. Do not forget to include
+ that in the package.xml as shown below. Run the following command in
+ the package's meta directory:
+
+ \code
+ lrelase <language>.ts
+ \endcode
+
+
+ \include installerfw-examples-configuring.qdocinc
+
+ \quotefile translations/config/config.xml
+
+ \include installerfw-examples-packaging.qdocinc
+
+ \list
+ \li The \c <Default> element is set to \c true to preselect the
+ component in the installer.
+ \li The \c <Script> element specifies the file name of the JavaScript
+ file that is loaded to perform operations.
+ \li The \c <License> element specifies the file name of the license file
+ that is shown when this component is selected for installation.
+ \li The \c <Translations> element specifies the file name of the QM
+ file containing translations for this compontent's UI and script files.
+ \endlist
