I18N and non-literals

[Gunnar Wolf <gw...@gwolf.org>]

While building an I18N-able site, I noticed Embperl's [= =] facility
seems to work only for literals, and does not work with data generated
by expression - this means:

[= string =]

will be properly translated to whatever message I defined for
'string', but

[$ foreach $var qw(string chain thing) $]
[= $var =]
[$ endforeach $]

will only appear as:

$var
$var
$var

Why is it so? Is there a way I can change this setting? I know I can
call [+ $req_rec->gettext($var) +] instead, but it loses all the
beauty ;-)

Greetings,

At the moment there is no build in way to change this. Basicly it should not
be hard to extent the EmbperlBlocks syntax (see
Embperl/Syntax/EmbperlBlocks.pm) to do what you want.
