Why doesnt CP add support for other language?
-
1. Almost every function that starts a process is named
Kick_Process_. 2. Lots of unusual misspellings:Functuion, for example. 3. -ing forms of verbs just tack on 'ing':seting,outputing. Some of the coding style is bizarre as well, but I don't think that's significant based on language alone. This particular guy's spoken English seems to be pretty good when he's been in our office.

You can always use google translate.. not very good but may be useful CodeProject in German[^] CodeProject in Chinese[^] 60% of statistics are made up on the spot

That's one of my issues with this guy's programming style; he's not consistent. Indentation varies from one function to the next. Naming conventions are all over the map. The strangest thing is how he uses the
thispointer everywhere to refer to members:class MyClass {
void KickFunctuion();
MyOtherObject *_OtherObject;
}
void MyClass:KickFunctuion()
{
(*this->_OtherObject).Method();
}

If you mean other programming languages, it's because our Editorial focus is on Microsoft and .NET technologies. If you mean other spoken languages it's because we have nearly 12,000 articles and zero resources spare to translate these and keep them up to date and synched. Volunteers do not work. We tried this back in the CodeGuru days but it was a nightmare. It's fun for about 2 days then the sheer enormity of the task burns out anyone trying to help out. There are other programming sites in many other languages that do a good job of filling the needs of the najority of non-English speakers in this world. cheers, Chris Maunder

Qe? (or however the spanish bloke from Fawlty Towers spelt it) Isn't it because you are spending far too much time riding bikes and not drinking beer?

When i used the word 'language', I was referring to a programming language. I didn't refer to it in the original sense of the word. My bad...next time i'll be more specific. However, after reading your replies, I got answers to two queries; I managed to understand the problems of transalating CP into another language and also the reason behind not adding support for other 'programming languages'. Thank you.

For instance, Russian... :rolleyes:
