php-gettext

I've been looking at options for internationalizing an open source project: Gettext, which everyone seems to recommend, apparently needs locales to be "installed on your system" to be used. See this note on the PHP manual, which reflects exactly my situation. This SO question also asks about the same problem. This isn't suitable for an open source project because I can't trust that the end users have the appropriate locales installed on their system.

It's not file permissions either because I can echo out the contents of the .mo file. <?php //$locale = 'sv_SE.UTF-8'; $locale = 'sv_SE'; $dir = dirname(__FILE__); // File permission is apparantly not a problem as this works... //echo file_get_contents($dir . '/sv_SE/LC_MESSAGES/flattr.mo'); putenv("LANG=$locale"); putenv("LANGUAGE=$locale");
