Because: 1. we want to handle missing strings in the translation (that default to english ones) 2. we don't depend on an array order or specific position since we want to be able to easily remove strings 3. we haven't locked ourselves into a set format for the binary code, we can easily change the array into something different, should we come up with something 4. we'll soon generate loadable translations, and then we won't be using those translated arrays this way anymore... -- Daniel "Bagder" Stenberg -- http://rockbox.haxx.se/Received on 2002-09-23 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
