Here is a class C + + to simplify the management of language files in C + +. It is already very comprehensive, and allows, among others, running a default language ...

Download:

languageManager - Sample
languageManager - Class C + +

The sample is sufficient to understand the functioning of this class, but I will explain a few things ...

How do we serve?

1. It includes the header (# include "languageManager.h")
2. It creates the object (languageManager Language
3. It configures the load

There are several things to load: title, which is a table that depends on the number of files languages (there will be no need to recharge), extraData which is a table in 2 dimensions which depends on the number of files and languages of imposed a number (we will not need to recharge), and text, which is a table that depends on the number imposed (on the recharge whenever you change language).
Why have thought so? extraData title and are variables that will be required all the time, but text will depend on the language chargéé (to save memory)

Code:
Langue.configure ( ". / Language /", "", 100, "def", "#");
Langue.configureDataToLoad (0, 1, NEXT, 1, NEXT, MAX);


In the first line shows the directory where the files will be stored languages, the file name to be created containing the file name default language (by default this file is called "default.lang"), maximum number of lines to load (the famous number that is imposed on text and extraData), the extension of files languages (here "def") and the character through which begin comentaires.
In the second row, said:
-- A line which must begin loading the title (0 = first line, second line 1 = ...), then the number of lines to charge for title;
-- A line which must begin loading extraData (0 = first line, second line = 1 ... NEXT = line following the end of the title), then the number of lines to charge for extraData;
-- A line which must begin loading text (0 = first line, second line = 1 ... NEXT = line following the end of extraData), then the number of lines to charge for the text (MAX = charge as much lines as possible to limit the number imposed earlier).

4. It is a research file languages and are charged with title and extraData: Langue.search ();
5. We support the language default Langue.loadDefault (), this function returns 1 if successful loading and 0 in case of non-loading (ie that the missing file is not created or that the file default language does not exist).
6. If the default load has not worked, it creates a menu choice of language then we support the language (for example: Langue.load (Langue.config-1)
7. It may also allow accents, cédilles and others (thank you dridri85 and Akabane87):

Quote:
Langue.accentueTitle ();
Langue.accentueExtraData ();
Langue.accentueText ();


8. To access the data loaded, it was as follows:

Code:
Langue.text [i]
Langue.extraData [i] [j]
Langue.title [i]


(replacing i and j by good values)

Well, I fatigue, I will stop there, to better understand, please refer to the sample.

PS: it works well ...

Microsoft is teaming up with the Boys & Girls Club of America to help kick-off the inaugural National Family Fitness Day on May 12.

The event will take place at the Children’s Aid Society’s Dunlevy Milbank Center Boys & Girls Club, New York and inclide a chance to play DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE 2 on the Xbox 360 for free. Supermodel Christie Brinkley and health expert and physician Dr. Carlon Colker will both be on hand to kick things off.

Boys & Girls Clubs in Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and Seattle will also be hosting similar Family Fitness Day events, though none of them will be getting a super model on hand.

“Making sure that my children stay active and healthy is my top priority,” Brinkley said. “My children and I love to find new and exciting ways to get up and get moving, and playing games like ‘DanceDanceRevolution’ on Xbox 360 lets my kids have fun and get fit at the same time. And I have to admit, I have a blast playing it too.”

The event is happening the week before Wii Fit takes over a part of Central Park with their own fitness expert: Ashley Borden

The OrbLive streaming media app is for everyone who is sick of waiting for a Sling Mobile client on their iPhone. As you may (or may not) know, Orb pulls files off your PC and streams them to any device with an app or web browser capable of accessing the Orb interface. From there you can stream music, video files, and if you have a TV tuner card, live TV. While Orb was previously accessible via Safari, this new, official app is supposed to be an easier, more intuitive way to get your media on the go. It does require a jailbroken iPhone, however.

EA Sports president Peter Moore tells Eurogamer that the division is working on a Wii fitness game utilizing the pressure-balancy-board thing. The game will release under the new casual-oriented Freestyle label and will focus on "western" cardio workouts instead of Wii Fit's "eastern holistic fitness."

EA's version of Wii Fit is intended to make the user sweat while still having fun. Although Moore wouldn't get into specifics of the game, he would say that the key is to distract the user and make them have fun without realizing they're having a good workout. Hopefully, EA's exercise game will come with a Shamwow and some disinfectant spray for the board. Yes, we've now come to fear the fungal side of Wii Fit.

Tectoy (they used to be Tec Toy officially), which is the Brazilian Sega-affiliated company we like to cover, has a new poll on the main site asking which console consumers would like to see Tectoy re-release. The choices are Game Gear, Dreamcast, and Pense Bem (think well) - a children's computer from the 80s. Anyone can vote. The stats right now are:
Game Gear (5.3%)
Dreamcast (91.0%)
Pense Bem (3.7%)

Dreamcast is a clear favorite here, and people are already speculating about what a Tectoy Dreamcast would be like. Tectoy's usual MO is to take a console like the Master System or Genesis and shrink it down, put a bunch of games on flash ram, and sell it as a stand-alone unit. However, when they re-released the Saturn and Dreamcast before, they just put them out straight (unfortunately those pages are down, but I talked about them here). So this re-release could really be a re-envisioning of the console - or it could be a re-release. My money would actually go toward a slimmer Game Gear, especially if I were the guy choosing the games to go on it! The Tectoy blog only has a cryptic statement "What should we release? Hmmmmm." So, a Dreamcast re-release of some kind seems likely, if they're going by the stats. It may not be soon, but it may be interesting!

Also keep in mind that Tectoy and AtGames have a relationship as well. What Tectoy is to Brazil, AtGames is to China, meaning the company has the rights to release OEM hardware with games based on any Sega console in the region. What's more, the portable Genesis from AtGames that went on sale a few months back is actually Tectoy's portable Genesis. The form factor and games are exactly the same. So, if Tectoy releases an OEM Dreamcast, we may see it with an English manual before long. Keep your eyes peeled! Thanks to Fernando M. for pointing this out.
