Description Andras Timar 2013-08-05 12:24:31 UTC
There are cases, when incorrectly translated strings cause run-time problems. We need a tool that checks .po files for identical translations where they have to be unique. 

Function names in Calc have to be unique. 
translations/source/*/formula/source/core/resource.po RID_STRLIST_FUNCTION_NAMES
translations/source/*/scaddins/source/pricing.po RID_PRICING_FUNCTION_NAMES
translations/source/*/scaddins/source/analysis.po RID_ANALYSIS_FUNCTION_NAMES
translations/source/*/scaddins/source/datefunc.po RID_DATE_FUNCTION_NAMES

Style names in Writer have to be unique.
translations/source/*/sw/source/ui/utlui.po STR_POOLNUMRULE_ and STR_POOLCOLL_

We need a utility that can generate a report which can be sent to translators. l10ntools/ module contains po file handling classes.
