Hi,
Ruby-GetText-Package-1.3.0 is now available.
Now ActiveRecord::Column.human_name values translate automaticaly.
Changes for RoR
---------------
* Improve Local::Object
* POSIX, C convert to "en".
* Enhance supports of Ruby on Rails.
* ActionMailer localization support.
* Use GetText function(_() N_() etc) in template.
* ISO-2022-JP charset is used when language is "ja"(Japanese).
* Localization templates support.
* ActionController::Base.render_text is overrided to find
localized templates such as foo_ja.rhml, foo_ja_JP.rhtml.
* @params["lang"] is treated as cgi["lang"]
* Use N_() as localized messages of validates_* instead of _().
* Translates ActiveRecord::Column.human_name values automatically.
* Fix memory leak, other bugs.
Thanks to:
Albert Ramstedt, Yugui, drawnboy, Erkki Eilonen,
Nickolay Kolev, Kazuhiro NISHIYAMA and others.
*Note*
Now you need to use N_() as localized messages of validates_* instead of _().
# If you use _(), it works on development mode but doesn''t work on
production
# mode.
(e.g.)
class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :title, :message => N_("%{fn} can''t be
empty")
validates_length_of :description, :minimum => 10, :message =>
N_("is required more than %d characters")
end

What''s this?
-------------
Ruby-GetText-Package is a Localization(L10n) Library and Tools which is
modeled after GNU gettext package.
The library converts the messages to localized messages properly using
client-side locale information. And the tools for developers support
to create, use, and modify localized the message files(message catalogs)
easily.
Features:
* Simple APIs(similar GNU gettext)
* rgettext command for creating po-files from files below:
o ruby scripts
o glade-2 XML file(.glade)
o ERB file(.rhtml)
o ActiveRecord (.rb)
* rmsgfmt command for creating a mo-file from a po-file.
* The po-file is compatible to GNU gettext.
You can maintain these files to use GNU getext tools.
* The mo-file is compatible to GNU gettext(msgfmt).
* multi-textdomain supported.
You can select two kind of textdomain''s scope:
o A file base (default: recommanded)
o A Class/Module base (GetText::Container, GetText::ErbContainer,
GetText::Rails)
* CGI support (gettext/cgi)
* ERB support (gettext/erb)
* Ruby on Rails support (gettext/rails)
