Abstract: Localizing software applications into target languages such as French, Italian, Chinese, etc. is time consuming, expensive and error prone. End users often need to install and operate multiple copies of the same software applications localized into different languages if they need to work in multiple languages. By providing a localization engine with access to information about resources used in a user interface and translations of those resources, on the fly localization of software applications is possible. Context information is stored in the localization database and used to identify appropriate translations of the resources. Run-time context information is obtained from the user interface and/or software application and optionally a context information store. In some examples, target language resource results are presented in tooltip like displays.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems and computer-readable media for transliteration between Cyrillic and Latin script in a software product. An embodiment of this transliteration system and method comprises loading a text of characters and words in one of a Cyrillic or Latin script into a character transliteration module. This module converts each character in the one of a Cyrillic or Latin script into a corresponding opposite transliterated Cyrillic or Latin character. Then each word is examined in a word capitalization and exception module that compares each transliterated word against a set of predetermined grammatical rules to determine whether there are exceptions in capitalization. If there are, then appropriate internal capitalization of characters is added. Each word of the text to be transliterated is sequentially examined and converted until all words have been examined.
