Diagbox V7.77 Multilingual

[Simple]

I wrote a proceedure on upgrading DiagBox Version 7.76 to 7.77. Unfortunately users were unable to use Lexia in other than English and PP2000 in other than French. Now I managed to fix that and I have published the procedure on a number of sites.

Changing DiagBox, Lexia nd PP2000 Language (tested on v7.76 and v7.77) and this is how to do it:
 
Once again, This is for educational and experimental use, and I hold no responsibility for any improper usage or damage to your system..
 
For DiagBox:
1- Open the File Explorer and navigate to "C:\AWRoot\dtrd\trans\", find the file "Language.ini" and create a copy "Language.ini.org".
Open the file Language.ini and under [LANGUAGE], change "Current=en_GB" to "Current=fr_FR" and save (I commented the original and added the change).
[LANGUAGE]
;Current=en_GB
Current=fr_FR
 
For Lexia:
2a- Navigate to "C:\APP\LEXIA\EXE\" find the file "langue.ini" and create a copy "langue.ini.org".
Open the file "langue.ini" and under [DicoMap], change all "%LG%" to FR (I commented the original 4 lines and added changed 4 lines).
[DicoMap]
;CITACT=..\Dico\CITACT%LG%.dbz,APV
;CITTT=..\Dico\CITTT%LG%.dbz,APV
;CITTV=..\Dico\CITTV%LG%.dbz,APV
;THESAU=..\Dico\THESAU%LG%.dbz,APV
CITACT=..\Dico\CITACTFR.dbz,APV
CITTT=..\Dico\CITTTFR.dbz,APV
CITTV=..\Dico\CITTVFR.dbz,APV
THESAU=..\Dico\THESAUFR.dbz,APV
 
2b- Navigate to "C:\APPLIC\LCTLEX3\", find the file "Dico.txt" and create a copy named "Dico.txt.org".
Open the file "Dico.txt" and change the line "Dico=THELEXGB.DBZ" to "Dico=THELEXFR.DBZ"
;Dico=THELEXGB.DBZ
Dico=THELEXFR.DBZ
 
For PP2000:
3- If you wish to change PP2000, Navigate to "C:\APP\OutilRep\exe\", find the file "Dico.txt" and create a copy named "Dico.txt.org". Open the file "Dico.txt" and change the line "Dico=THESAUFR.DBZ" to "Dico=THESAU**.DBZ", where ** is any of the 20 available languages
Please notice that English=GB, French=FR and German=AL (French naming not unicode).
 
There are other incidents of "en_GB" that I changed to "fr_FR" in my installation. But I think the above is enough to get you working, you can find them in the INI and few java files....
 
You can also use a script to blanket change "en_GB" to "fr_FR" but be careful, because some listing are definitions for language codepages like Arabic or German etc.., and other coding is non-unicode/standard. But if you dont care and other languages are not needed, you could have a go (make backups of the files before touching them).
Enjoy the Multilingual version of DiagBox 7.xx

Upgrade to DiagBox v7.77 (if you have upgraded to 7.76) the file is attached above.

Please notice that this is intended for educational and/or experimental purposes and that you perform any or all the below procedures at your own risk. I hold no responsibility for any issue you may face.

 

Procedure (Offline Update):
1- Go to C:\AWRoot\bin\fi\ and create another copy of cashe folder naming it cashe.org.
2- Download the attached "updt_77u.zip" file, Expand it and copy the contents of the updt_77 forder to C:\AWRoot\dtwr\updt\ directly, replacing and overwriting existing files and folders.
3- Run DiagBox, it will start the upgrade process, when it finishes successfully click ok, it will run for the first time and will give 9 or 10 error message, keep clicking ok until DiagBox closes down.
4- Copy the 13 files that start with “fr.actia.AWF.xxxxxxx.dll†from cashe.org into the (empty) C:\AWRoot\bin\fi\cashe\ folder.
5- Run DiagBox and it will run successfully.

 

If you don’t like 7.77 update or you have an issue with it. Run Maitresox’s 7.74 to 7.76 again and it should successfully downgrade it to DiagBox v7.76.

Good man, I actually sorted this some time back, and I did not see anybody posting something similar, I thought it might be deleted and I would be banned.

 

But you guys are some of the kindest on the net, so I took the chance and posted.... 

 

You see, I could hve package the solution and made look like a black box.. But I dont do this for living, I do it for love, and I like to empower members by sharing knowledge.

 

Well, I am glad to be positevly disappointed.

 

Engoy the day, Simple.

 

p.s. The file above is a genuine download from PSA.

Telecoding is not possible in v7.63, 7.64 and 7.65. Also, with maitresox you can perform upgrade and downgrade, with scarymistake you can only upgrade, to downgrade use maitresox to upgrade one step then downgrade as you wish.

You must have got C:\AWRoot, DiagBox installs this by default, Re-arrange the list of files and folders (by name) in the folder manager and it should appear, but if DiagBox already shows in English, what you need is "C:\APP" this time.

 

What you need to do is follow the instructions For Lexia in the first post. Also check C:\APP\LEXIA\EXE\DICO.TXT as well, it should have the line "Dico=THELEXGB.DBZ"
