Roland Zwaga commented on FLEX-33330:
-------------------------------------

The application does use the ResourceManager, in the RuntimeLocale.as file all of the locales are created at runtime instead of using a compiled external resource bundle.
I can't remember exactly why it was done this way, I believe this way was faster. It was discussed on the list a while ago IIRC...

> Right now updating the translation for an existing locale, or creating a new locale for the InstallApache application involves quite a bit of copy/pasting. While the list of locales grows this problem will grow with it, IMHO.
> To try and combat this complexity I've created a small AIR application which is capable of loading, parsing and editing the RuntimeLocale.as (which contains all of the locale data) file of the InstallApache project.
> I'll attach both an FXP export of the FlashBuilder project as well as an AIR installer for the application.
> Should folks find the app useful I'll be happy to donate the code to Apache Flex.
> A huge credit goes out to Michael Schmalle who created the asblocks library (https://github.com/teotigraphix/as3-commons-asblocks) which takes care of the parsing and editing of actionscript source files.
