Globalyzer Workbench for i18n Specialists
Introduction
The Globalyzer Workbench is power application for i18n specialists. It allows users to create Globalyzer projects, test out rule sets and tune them, scan the code, go from the resulting candidate issue to the line in the source which may be modified, externalize strings en masse, and more.
Target User
The typical Globalyzer Workbench user is knowledgeable in internationalization, understands the power of the Lingoport Suite, and can create and tune rule sets for members of the development staff.
Typical Deployment
The Globalyzer Workbench resides on a local desktop. The user can access the Globalyzer Server to use, create and modify rule sets.
Typical Workflow
The i18n specialist uses the Globalyzer Workbench to:
- Get the code from a source code repository,
- Create a Globalyzer project from within the Globalyzer Workbench connected to a Globalyzer Server
- Manage the candidate issues
- Tune the rule sets
- Refactor the code
- Push that code to the repository.
When the rule sets are deemed acceptable, the Workbench user may save the Globalyzer project configuration by exporting it to a file, project.gproj. They may then push the project.gproj to the repository for use by other Workbench users and/or a continuous globalization system.
Installation Notes
To install the Workbench, login to the Globalyzer server, download the Globalyzer Client installer for the platform you are running on, and run the installer.
