How to split dictionary files in Symfony

Mainly, there are two ways to split the translation files in symfony.

01)

You can split the translation file into several dictionary files, with a certain name. For example, you can split the messages.si.xml file into these two (or more) files in the application i18n/ directory:

main.si.xml
sub.si.xml

When a translation is not to be found in the default messages.si.xml file, you must declare which dictionary is to be used each time you call the __() helper, using its third argument. For example, to output a string that is translated in the sub.si.xml dictionary, write this:

02)

The other way of organizing translation dictionaries is to split them by module. Instead of writing a single messages.xx.xml file for the whole application, you can write one in each "modules/[module_name]/i18n/" directory.

Ex:

symfony/apps/frontend/modules/NewModule/i18n/messages.si.xml
symfony/apps/frontend/modules/NewModule/i18n/messages.en.xml
symfony/apps/frontend/modules/NewModule/i18n/messages.ta.xml

If you have the same translation element in both main messages file and module specific messages file, the priority will be given to the module specific file's element.

How to create a new module for vtiger...

Recently, I had to create a new module for vtigerCRM for my client in current working place. I did search in many places including the official vtiger sites, but couldn’t find a better documentation for my purpose. The latest vtiger version at that time was 5.0.3. Because I had some experience doing lots of core modifications for this system, I did decide to read the source code and find how to add a new module. Finally, I could create a new module and started the project. So, I thought it will be a good thing to write some thing on my blog about this topic, so that others who want to do this thing can read. Given below is a brief description about how to create a new module for vtiger CRM 5.0.3. Source code of this example module is also available to Download.
Step 01: Creating the module directory and minimum required files.
Create a directory called “newModule” inside your vtiger modules directory, or any other name that you prefer. Now, module index file should be created. Create a…

Common Characteristics of Enterprise Applications

Last week, I was conducting a tech talk about “Architectural Patterns of Enterprise Applications” with our team. The discussion was mainly based on Marin Fowler's famous book “Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture”. So, I thought, it's good to write something about that in my Blog. Given below are few common characteristics of Enterprise Applications. If any software product has the following characteristics, we can identify it as an Enterprise Application. These ware originally documented by “Martin Fowler”, in his book “Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture”.

Persistent Data - Enterprise applications usually involve persistent data. The data is persistent because it needs to be around between multiple runs of the program—indeed, it usually needs to persist for several years. Also during this time there will be many changes in the programs that use it.
Lot of Data - There's usually a lot of data, a moderate system will have over 1 GB of data organized in…

De Morgan's Laws in Programming

Recently, while I was reviewing some codes, I saw there were some conditional statements that check for the same condition but written in different ways. Most of these statements were written with common sense without using any mathematical analysis, since those are too simple to go for a more formal approach. The two identical conditional statements that has been written in different ways are given below.

01)

if ($comment['deleted'] == '1' || $comment['approved'] == '0') {
                unset($conversationsArray[$key]);
} else {
               ++$count;
}

02)

if ($comment['deleted'] == '0' && $comment['approved'] == '1') {
               ++$count;
} else {
           unset($conversationsArray[$key]);
}

Obviously, the above lines say that the inverse of the first condition is equals to the second condition and vice versa. That is...

($comment['deleted'] == '1' || $comment['ap…
