Is there any reason why Russian language is missing from the installer's language list?

Hi.

Could you please modify the PowerShell script build-windows.ps1 to use vcredist_msvc2015_x64.exe or vcredist_msvc2015_x86.exe basing on which plaform use to create the qtlinguist exe file?

Currently in standard installation (with both vcredist_msvc2015_x64.exe and vcredist_msvc2015_x86.exe files) the script failed.

I believe that the script should

• Check if user QTLinguist from QT SDK x64 system it should use vcredist_msvc2015_x64.exe
• Check if user QTLinguist from QT SDK x86 system it should use vcredist_msvc2015_x86.exe

I believe that the installer should have a name

QTLinguist-x.x.x-x86.exe if use QTSDK x86 files
QTLinguist-x.x.x-x64.exe if use QTSDK x64 files

I found that the script ps1 available here

https://github.com/lelegard/qtlinguist-installers/tree/master/windows

just create the exe file and seems less updated than the script available here

https://github.com/lelegard/qtlinguist-installers/releases

selecting 5.9.0 source code

Why the script in master repository create just exe installer and not zip standalone file?

I propose to change in teh full script (the script that create also the zi8p standalone)

$ZipInstaller = (Join-Path $InstallerDir "QtLinguist-$Version-Standalone.zip")

with

$ZipInstaller = (Join-Path $InstallerDir "QtLinguist-Standalone-$Version.zip")

to have the file

QTLInguist-x.x.x-exe
QTLinguist-x.x.x-Standalone.zip

Thanks.

Since 2019, there is an official download for a standalone Linguist installer: https://download.qt.io/linguist_releases/ It would be awesome if you could mention this in the readme.

Ideally, Qt would link to that from their download page, but they clearly don't give a shit. This repository is the second search result for "qt linguist download" on Google, so you could do the world a big one by making the release actually findable.

@lelegard

I propose (to highlight it) change the text in documentation page

Alternatively, if you trust the author of this project, you may directly download binary installers from the project releases.

@lelegard

Could you please update the installer to 5.9.1 version?

Thanks.

Hi.

QT release SDK 5.11.1.

Could you please QT-Linguist archive?

Thanks.

Hi

Is it possible to update the installer to QT 6?

@lelegard

Hi.

I believe that could be a good idea to seperate in the list of

https://github.com/lelegard/qtlinguist-installers/releases

the installer (Windows/Mac/Windows portable) from script source code.

This because QTLinguist installer has a version (5.9.0/59.1) but the source code is not related to QT SDK version.

In this way is not necessary to revise the script when it's available a new QT SDK version because the script should be independent by QT SDK version.

You can catalogue source code by release date as YYYY.MM.DD.

Thanks.

@lelegard

QT SDK team released QT SDK 5.12.3.

If you can please build QT Linguist 5.12.3 and put it here

https://github.com/lelegard/qtlinguist-installers/releases

Thanks. KR.

Using latest QT SDK (5.13.1) runng Power Shell script I got this error

Copy-Item : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is an empty string.
At D:\Download\Temp2\qtlinguist-installers\windows\build-windows.ps1:386 char:15

• Copy-Item $VcredistExe $TempRedistDir
  

•           ~~~~~~~~~~~~
  

  • CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Copy-Item], ParameterBindingValidationException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentValidationErrorEmptyStringNotAllowed,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.CopyItemCommand

The script create installer (exe file) right but didn't create zip file because seems cannot copy vcredistr.exe.

I check that in new QT SDK build are available

vcredistr_x86..exe
vcredistrr_x86.exe

Using aletst evrsion of PowerShell 6.1.0 running build-windows.ps1 I got an error

In D:\Download\qtlinguist-installers-master\windows\build-windows.ps1:244 car:26

•         if ($subdir - <<<< notin $QtSkipDirectories) {
  

  • CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParseException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : ExpectedValueExpression

the line with error is

        if ($subdir **_-notin_** $QtSkipDirectories) {

PS: I didn't find the info that to run the script it's need befroe to run this command in PowerShell

run command to elevate privilege

Is it right?

@lelegard

With new QT SDK 5.31.1 it's possible to install both SDK for MinIGW (or Visual C++) for x86 and x64 platform.

If I installa for example both MiniGW for x86 and x64 how can setup the QTLinguiist installer Powershell script to create QtLinguist exe/zip for x64 or x86?

Thanks.

@lelegard

Is it possible to modify the script to have a single exe file not installer as standalone exe file?

Hi.

Can i help you to localize the nsis qtlinguist script for the installer adding Italian language?

Where can I find the text strings used in the installer?

I got this info about nsis script

!include "MUI2.nsh"
!include "WinMessages.nsh"

WEhere can I find it?

I propose theese changes in nsis

OutFile "${RootDir}\installers\QtLinguist-${ProductVersion}-Installer.exe" (add -Installer)

InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES\QtLinguist" (without space between Qt and Linguist)

I poprose also to change the standaone zip file for Windows to

QTLinguist-5.x.x**-Standalone**.zip (-Standalone after version number)

Thanks.

@lelegard

QT released a new version 5.11.0.

Could you please update your package in

https://github.com/lelegard/qtlinguist-installers/releases

Thanks. Bye.

I think a good idea by adding an option to integrate .TS files.

@lelegard

I used QT 5.10.,0 with your script (Ia dedd Italin language for QT-Linguist) and I created standone with QT Lingist and Italian language works fine.

Now the QT Team released QT 5.10.1.

I made the same job.

I uninstalled QT 5.10.0
I installed QT 5.10.1

I copied the Qt Linguist Italian language in the folder.

I I ran QT Linguist from QT SDK folder it works in Italian.

Using the same Qt.Linguist standalone script (yours) now the portable and installrr version works fine, but when I run your QT Linguist didn't start in Italian (starts in English) also if the relative language file is present.

What's about it?

Whats the configuration (modules) that you suggest to check during QT SDK installation?

Linguist_it.zip

Thanks. Bye.

@lelegard

Executing the .ps1 from powershell I got this error

In row:133 char:26

•         if ($subdir - <<<< notin $QtSkipDirectories) {
  

  • CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : ExpectedValueExpression

@lelegard

Could you please for all languages included in the installer, where i s possible and teh relative file available, add to your installation package also all linguist-xx.qm (where xx is the language code) to enable the QT Linguist start in native language file?

Current languages included in the installer

• QT sdk language - bg/ca/cs/da/de/es/fr/fi/gd/he/hu/it/ja/ko/lv/pl/ru/sk/uk

Theese are the linguist_xx language available to add to the installer

Available here: http://l10n-files.qt.io/l10n-files/

• Linguist language available bg/cs/da/de/es/fr/hu/ja/ko/pl/ru/sk/uk

or then you can find into translate sub-folder of the folder that depend by compiler module that you installed. Ex.

C:\Qt\Qt5.9.2\5.9.2\msvc2015_64\translations

I'm working on linguist_it language.

QT Linguist 5.12 is not running on 32 bit system. Executable is for 64 bit only?

pylupdate - is the same as update only for python files.

This utility is easy enough to install on Linux. But for Windows, this is problematic. I haven't seen this utility in compact builds.

@lelegard

I propose to change the standard output zip file name removing Standalone.

in the .ps1 powershell script

# Build standalone installer.
$ZipInstaller = (Join-Path $InstallerDir "QtLinguist-$Version-Standalone.zip")

to

# Build standalone installer.
$ZipInstaller = (Join-Path $InstallerDir "QtLinguist-$Version.zip")

Because is clear that zip is standalone (portable) program.

@lelegard

I propose you to change the scheme for release packages.

QTLinguist-x.x.x-installer.exe - Windows installer
QTLinguist-x.x.x-installer.dmg - Mac installer
QTLinguist-x.x.x-standalone.zip - Windows standalone package

Where x.x. is the version. Ex.

QTLinguist-5.9.0-installer.exe - Windows installer

Thanks to add the standalone package.

@lelegard

How can run powershell from MSDOS prompt but the standard command (ex. form windows sub-folder)

powershell -file build-windows.ps1

didn't work. Just works

powershell build-windows.ps1

How can run this .ps1 powershell script without pause at the end of compilation?
I want to create a dos batch that can help user to compile exe/zip file.

@lelegard

Could you please create standalone QTLinguist installer (ex. 5.9.0) for Windows/Linux/Mac and post in some host.

Thanks.
