  238. #
  239. #    as you can see, there are 3 classes of language specifier,
  240. #    each more specific than the last:
  241. #
  242. #        default            includes all languages
  243. #        language        includes all sublanguages of that language
  244. #        sublanguage        includes only that sublanguage
  245. #
  246. #    a sublanguage name is always of the form 'lang_sublang'.  sublang is sometimes zero length, but the
  247. #    '_' character is always there in a sublanguge.  presence of the '_' character means the name is treated as a
  248. #    sublanguage.
  249. #
  250. #    these language names are used in the following way:
  251. #
  252. #    there is a 'switch' block whose child blocks represent ldl files and languages for which they are used.  Example:
  253. #
  254. #    
  255. #    switch
  256. #    {
  257. #        English
  258. #        {
  259. #            string language_0 "default"
  260. #            string file "string_e.ldl"
  261. #        }            
  262. #
  263. #        German
  264. #        {
  265. #            string language_0 "German"
  266. #            string file "string_g.ldl"
  267. #        }
  268. #
  269. #        French
  270. #        {
  271. #            string language_0 "French"
  272. #            string language_1 "Chinese"
  273. #            string language_2 "Arabic_Yemen"
  274. #            string file "string_f.ldl"
  275. #        }
  276. #
  277. #        US
  278. #        {
  279. #            string language_0 "English_US"
  280. #            string file "string_u.ldl"
  281. #        }
  282. #    }
  283. #
  284. #    in this example, string_e.ldl is the default ldl file to use.  string_u.ldl is used only on english US systems.
  285. #    string_g.ldl is used on german systems.  string_f.ldl is used on french, chinese, and arabic yemen systems.  Other
  286. #    arabic systems would use string_e.ldl, since "Arabic" is not specified anywhere.  note that this is a bizarre 
  287. #    example constructed only for the explanation's sake.
  288. #
  289. #    most products' switch blocks will look quite simple:
  290. #
  291. #    switch.string_e 
  292. #    { 
  293. #        string language_0 "default"
  294. #        string file "string_e.ldl"
  295. #    }
  296. #
  297. #    or maybe:
  298. #
  299. #    switch
  300. #    {
  301. #        Default
  302. #        {
  303. #            language_0 "default"
  304. #            string file "string_e.ldl"
  305. #        }
  306. #        
  307. #        string_g
  308. #        {
  309. #            language_0 "German"
  310. #            string file "string_g.ldl"
  311. #        }
  312. #        
  313. #        string_f
  314. #        {
  315. #            language_0 "French"
  316. #            string file "string_f.ldl"
  317. #        }
  318. #
  319. #        string_s
  320. #        {
  321. #            language_0 "Spanish"
  322. #            string file "string_s.ldl"
  323. #        }
  324. #    }
  325. #
  326. #
  327. #    for a multilanguage CD designed for english, german, french, and spanish systems.
  328. #    note that if the string_e block had been:
  329. #
  330. #        English
  331. #        {
  332. #            string language_0 "English"
  333. #            string file "string_e.ldl"
  334. #        }
  335. #
  336. #    you would have had no default ldl file specified.  Always supply a default ldl file.  If the above installer were to be run on a
  337. #    chinese system, setup would not launch.  Activision company policy has been not to lockout users based on the language of their windows OS.
  338. #
  339. #    other things to note:  language names are not case sensitive.  Attributes of the ldl file block should be named language_0, language_1, etc...
  340. #    Setup stops looking for languages at the first such attribute in the series that it can't find.  The child blocks of 'switch' can be named
  341. #    anything which is a valid base filename.  Each child block must have a 'file' attribute.  This is the path to the ldl file to be used,
  342. #    default directory is SRCDIR:/, if no drive is specified.
  343. #
  344. #    the ldl files referenced by the switch block should contain all the information setup needs to change its behavior based on language.
  345. #    Usually this includes text context, files to copy, formatting and positioning, voice-over .wav files, and locations of secondary 
  346. #    resources such as help and web sites.
