Can't access the gettext function "_()" in simpleTemplate #486

Open visig9 opened 11 years ago

visig9 commented 11 years ago

Look Here:

% import gettext
% gettext.install('ProgramX') # It will set _ = gettext.gettext in python builtins namespace.

...

{{!_('Translate Me!')}} % # But it failed! _ be occupied by a dict object and it not callable...

How could I access the gettext interface "_"?

The _.get('__builtins__').get('_')('Translated Me') really not a good idea... (because xgettext program are hard to parse and extract the string which need to be translated, and of course, it too long!)

Thanks!

Yes, SimpleTemplate set a _ variable, which probably override your _.

I'm sure it can be changed to not conflict with the underscore used by gettext.
