DropIt

I made some improvements to the Localizer, that can be downloaded for tests from here:
http://www.lupopensuite.com/files/dropit/Localizer.zip

I'm also working to the next DropIt version, that will includes several interesting improvements as previously reported.

@azevedo: thanks for your suggestions, I'll add them to my list of planned features!

@jplh: that feature is one of the improvements that will be available in next version.. if you want, I can send you a beta version to test it..

Nice idea. Your function for Google Translate is returning 0 and not the translated string.

Thanks! The last update includes some improvements and source code included..

The Google Translate feature is taken from some examples on AutoIt forum, but I cannot understand why it works only sometimes. Maybe it depends on system settings, given that uses IE to take translations. This is the code:

Code:

Func __GetTranslate($sOriginal_String, $sOriginal_Language = "auto", $sTranslation_Language = "auto")
   #cs
      Description: Get Translation Of A String.
      Returns: Translated String [Hello World]
   #ce
   Local $oIE = _IECreate("http://translate.google.com/#" & $sOriginal_Language & "|" & $sTranslation_Language & "|" & $sOriginal_String, 0, 0, 1)
   Local $hResult_Destination = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "result_box")
   Local $sTranslated_String = _IEPropertyGet($hResult_Destination, "innertext")
   _IEQuit($oIE)
   Return $sTranslated_String
EndFunc   ;==>__GetTranslate

Have you an idea of what could be the problem?

I know one issue though this isn't due to the problem I reported.

The problem of the 0 output is due to this issue.. I discovered that sometimes it fails the first time, but works at the next try, this is the reason with in the code I added a loop of 5 tries to get the translation.. I think the problem is that I don't use an api, but simply open Google Translate in a background browser window and get the translation back (that is not the best way to do it, but the only I found)

The API is very costly for a free product and secondly are you sure the translation works if the text contains spaces?

It works fine on my system also with spaced strings.. but if you confirm me that on your system works only with not spaced strings, I could update the code substituting special characters..

I just updated some functions in the latest DropIt source code, but, there are many errors with multiple decelerations etc. I don't know what has happened? Are you getting them in SciTE?

Lupo73 · **Posted:** Thu Sep 13, 2012 6:23 am

Thanks for your updates! I integrated them in my last code version and uploaded it..

What do you mean with "multiple decelerations"? This last update (made now) is correctly compiled by SciTE, even if it reports 6 errors with Call() function (only if compiled with obfuscator, no idea of the problem)..

Instead there are a couple of bugs reported by users and that you could help me to solve (if you have a few time for them).. I'm sending them to you with a PM! :wink:

Honestly, my time is limited these days. Sorry. I had time today and only updated the functions I had to integrated into DropIt.

Edit: Is the SVN version up to date and does it match the same structure as you have in your local version of DropIt?

Edit 2: I know the problem now, you will see in the update.

Edit 3: Doesn't change the face there are still quite a lot of syntax errors present e.g. DropIt_Modifier.au3

The problem is you were using <WinAPIEx.au3> which was conflicting with my AutoIt version as I have WinAPIEx.au3/APIConstants.au3 in the include folder now since it's been added to AutoIt V3.3.9.4. Therefore to use the the local version I changed it to "WinAPIEx.au3"

I restored the previous version waiting the stable release.. that is probably the difference..

Today I merged a old post that I think slipped past the Dropit team because it was posted to a separate thread. Due to the age, the database put it back behind quite a few posts on this very active topic.

Anyway, wanted to reference it here on the off chance that the author is still awaiting the response or it's interesting/valuable to the Dropit folks.

The limit reported by MisterPeter is included in the list of "known issues".. I thought it wasn't a big issue given that it's possible to import lists of thousands of files without problems.. Anyway I could recheck it, do you have the same problem?
