LocalizationManager API request was created by Jos

We have found that the default return type of string.empty for the LocalizationManager.GetTermTranslation() method is sometimes not what we want.

I've implemented the following method, and would like to request that it, or something like it, be added to the public API.

public static bool TryGetTermTranslation(string Term, out string Translation)
{
	Translation = string.Empty;

	for (int i=0, imax=Sources.Count; i<imax; ++i)
	{
		string val = Sources[i].GetTermTranslation (Term);
		if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(val))
		{
			Translation = val;
			return true;
		}
	}
	return false;
}

This also removes a HasTermTranslation() method that we had added before as well.

Thanks!

Jos

Hi,
Ok, I added that method to the LocalizationManager. So you could do GetTermTranslation() or TryGetTermTranslation().

I changed the method a bit and instead of Sources.GetTermTranslation I added a Sources.TryGetTranslation. That way you could differentiate between string.Empty and not existent terms.

I will release that change in the 2.3.1 b2 tomorrow or latter today.

Thanks,
Frank
