Summary0003493: texts like "Server filter" and "Buddies" aren't being translated.
DescriptionWhile doing tests, I've encountered some strings that are not being translated.
There are two places where I originally noticed they are not being translated:
  • the text that appears when you put your mouse over the "Server filter" button located over the server list
  • the button in the menu "View"


Previous to the commits related to language translations, the text did translate to Polish.
Steps To Reproduce
  1. Compile the latest commit (1b09978)
  2. Open Doomseeker, change the language to Spanish/Polish
  3. Restart Doomseeker, check the two strings

Ok, It seems like this affects more texts. Gonna rewrite the title.

Ok, It turns out that there is, in fact, lots of texts not being translated, based on the output of cmake .. -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=ON; make:'https://pastebin.com/ErAzzE6P [^]'

I think I'm gonna make this issue "major"

One thing to keep in mind here is that Wadseeker lib doesn't have translations and any strings that come out of it will be untranslated. This is something that we haven't dealt with so far, but should be considered as a "missing feature" rather than as a bug.

the errors mentioned come from the "core", but I'll take a quick look at the Wadseeker lib.

EDIT: For what I've had time to read, this seems like an error of the tool that generates the translation files, and it seems that there are workarounds to solve those.

Another 2 things:

1. tr() will only actually work in a subclass that inherits from QObject
2. Q_OBJECT macro must be present in that class declaration.

Lack of any of those, or using a compilation workaround such as "QObject::tr()" will result in a non-functional translation.

Missing tr() call found in createserverdialog.cpp here:'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/doomseeker/src/365d5abf3b5a3c10c1dd01114b6d21572c6cb5aa/src/core/gui/createserverdialog.cpp#lines-93 [^]'

Okay, I've narrowed down the issue. the files that give an "tr() cannot be called without context" are:

Most (if not all) of these errors can be resolved specifing the class: for instance, in mainwindow.cpp: tr becomes MainWindow::tr
This happens only in constructors.
there are also warnings saying "Qualifying with unknown namespace/class" but they do get translated and I can't seem to find what is wrong with them.
I'd assume that this is simply lupdate getting a little bit confused.

Pol, did you happen to find any explanation on why this occurs? The closest I could find was a bug report for C++11 initialization lists which shouldn't affect us:'https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-34128 [^]'

I also did encounter that same bug report. No clue, I do not understand why it affects us.
I have not tried to update translations with an older Qt5, so the possibility of this being a recent change to lupdate is not yet discarded. I wish I knew more.

I'm gonna look into it for the moment

My hypothesis was correct. I've run a Pipeline (since it uses Ubuntu 14.04, we can assume it uses an older version of qt):
'https://bitbucket.org/Pol_M/doomseeker/addon/pipelines/home#!/results/27 [^]'

This did not used to happen (as we can see that it only gives "Qualifying with unknown namespace/class" warnings), but since 5.11 (or before), it fails.

I use 5.7.0 and it happens for me too.

Well, this framework was never free of bugs. I suppose all we can do is deal with it. For now I can confirm that your patch fixes at least the "View" menu and the main toolstrip buttons.

Pretty much.
Should this be reported upstream?

And it successfuly generates the missing lines in my machine
