Function

GLibdpgettext2

since: 2.18

Declaration

const gchar*
g_dpgettext2 (
  const gchar* domain,
  const gchar* context,
  const gchar* msgid
)

Description

This function is a variant of g_dgettext() which supports a disambiguating message context. GNU gettext uses the ‘\004’ character to separate the message context and message id in msgctxtid.

This uses g_dgettext() internally. See that functions for differences with dgettext() proper.

This function differs from C_() in that it is not a macro and thus you may use non-string-literals as context and msgid arguments.

Available since: 2.18
