Hi,
Qt/QML support localization check here for more details.

my 2 cents
there is some tweaks you have to do for translation in QML:
any qml file you want to be scanned by lupdate utility have to be added to SOURCES item in .pro file:
hack_for_linguist {
SOURCES += qml/main.qml
}
"hack_for_linguist" requred for fool build system

all the rest is written in the docs

Hi

I have found this link as well
http://qt-project.org/wiki/How_to_cr...ge_application

However, coming from MS Dev and C# I sincerely hope that above link and the following
http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-Localization

for sure describe some extreme special cases that , at maximum, 5 people on this planet ever get use of.
However if it is so that Qt need a process including usage of using lconvert, lupdate, linguist, lrelease, .ts and .qm files etc.
just to archive multi language applications, this is truly and utter complete and sincerely BS.

I have never ever seen any more complicated rubbish to archive a multi lingual application,
it is way way way way easier to solve itself by creating your own reading algorithms from text files
or even use your own Xml files, such as C# is working in MS dev.

I recently bought a N9 and is at the moment taking the time to learn and use Qt to write an
application for the N9 but this total insane handling of multi languages for an application is making
me thinking twice of even make a "hello world" program.

In case you work on windows, remember to save your qml files as UTF8!
