sx.translations has this bit:
# MessageID attributes override arguments
if isinstance(msgid, (Message, MessageID)):
if msgid.domain != self.domain:
util = getUtility(ITranslationDomain, msgid.domain)
return util.translate(msgid,mapping,context,
target_language,default)

Indeed, sounds like the test's author didn't make sure it failed before
fixing this ;-)
OK, just so people know, I now have a sx.translations package which is
complete and available as open source but which I haven't had a chance
to release.
It has the following features:
- "translations" objects which implement both ITranslationDomain and
ILanguageAvailablility
- a "missing" mode which spits out .pot to a specified file for any
msgids that aren't found
Here's a sample ZCML snippet for configuring it from the tests:
<configure xmlns='http://namespaces.zope.org/zope'
xmlns:i18n='http://namespaces.simplistix.co.uk/translations'>
<configure package="zope.i18n.tests">
<i18n:registerTranslations locales="./locale"
missing="./missing.pot"/>
</configure>
</configure>
If anyone's interested in using this, please drop me an email, I'll
likely get around of officially releasing it in early September but it
is already live in a customer project so is seeing real world use ;-)
cheers,
Chris
