PHPXRef 0.7.1 : WordPress Trunk (Updated Daily) : Detail view of l10n.php

Functions that are not part of a class:

Retrieves the current locale.

If the locale is set, then it will filter the locale in the {@see 'locale'}
filter hook and return the value.

If the locale is not set already, then the WPLANG constant is used if it is
defined. Then it is filtered through the {@see 'locale'} filter hook and
the value for the locale global set and the locale is returned.

The process to get the locale should only be done once, but the locale will
always be filtered using the {@see 'locale'} hook.

return: string The locale of the blog or from the {@see 'locale'} hook.

get_user_locale( $user = 0 ) X-Ref

If the user has a locale set to a non-empty string then it will be
returned. Otherwise it returns the locale of get_locale().

determine_locale() X-Ref

Determines the current locale desired for the request.

return: string The determined locale.

translate( $text, $domain = 'default' ) X-Ref

before_last_bar( $text ) X-Ref

param: string $context Context information for the translators.
param: string $domain Optional. Text domain. Unique identifier for retrieving translated strings.

_n( $single, $plural, $number, $domain = 'default' ) X-Ref

number is singular or plural.

Example of a generic phrase which is disambiguated via the context parameter:

param: string $context Context information for the translators.
param: string $domain  Optional. Text domain. Unique identifier for retrieving translated strings.

_n_noop( $singular, $plural, $domain = null ) X-Ref

Registers plural strings in POT file, but does not translate them.

Used when you want to keep structures with translatable plural
strings and use them later when the number is known.

Example:

$message = _n_noop( '%s post', '%s posts', 'text-domain' );
...
printf( translate_nooped_plural( $message, $count, 'text-domain' ), number_format_i18n( $count ) );

'animals' => _nx_noop( '%s group', '%s groups', 'animals', 'text-domain' ),
);
...
$message = $messages[ $type ];

$message = _n_noop( '%s post', '%s posts', 'text-domain' );
...
printf( translate_nooped_plural( $message, $count, 'text-domain' ), number_format_i18n( $count ) );

return: string Either $singular or $plural translated text.
param: array  $nooped_plural {

load_textdomain( $domain, $mofile, $locale = null ) X-Ref

Loads a .mo file into the text domain $domain.

If the text domain already exists, the translations will be merged. If both

_load_textdomain_just_in_time( $domain ) X-Ref

Loads plugin and theme text domains just-in-time.

When a textdomain is encountered for the first time, we try to load
the translation file from `wp-content/languages`, removing the need
to call load_plugin_textdomain() or load_theme_textdomain().

return: bool Whether there are translations.
param: string $domain Text domain. Unique identifier for retrieving translated strings.

translate_user_role( $name, $domain = 'default' ) X-Ref

Translates role name.

Since the role names are in the database and not in the source there
are dummy gettext calls to get them into the POT file and this function
properly translates them back.

The before_last_bar() call is needed, because older installations keep the roles
using the old context format: 'Role name|User role' and just skipping the
content after the last bar is easier than fixing them in the DB. New installations
won't suffer from that problem.

param: string $domain Optional. Text domain. Unique identifier for retrieving translated strings.
