CMake module for gettext support?

Question

Is there a good, open-source, documented CMake module for gettext support?

I mean:

• Extracting messages from sources
• Merging messages to existing translations
• Compilation of mo-files
• Installation of mo-files.

Because plain macros that CMake provides are quite... useless for real l10n support.

Anybody?

Edit: I created my own cmake rules for my own project but I don't think that it is long term solution especially when you have multiple projects.

So it would be really helpful if someone directed me to such module.

Answer 1

I needed to write a gettext module for another project. So I made it user friendly and uploaded it to git hub.

Wesnoth has their own solution.

See the code: svn.gna.org/viewcvs/wesnoth/trunk/po/CMakeLists.txt?rev=42032&view=markup

And for reference: svn.gna.org/viewcvs/wesnoth/trunk/CMakeLists.txt?rev=42920&view=markup

I’m not too sure this is really ”good” solution, but it works.

So late 2011 I started work on a CMake module:

https://github.com/Jookia/GettextTools

It fulfils everything you require.
