How to localize an Add on

[Anonymous]

Is there any documentation or examples for how to localize an AddOn? I have my English messages etc in a GRC file. The examples sort of lead me to believe that I need a GRC file for each language. But is there a naming convention or is there some way I indicate the language in the GRC file? Do I create a single Add-on or must I create one for each language? It's all very unclear without some sort of guidance. Any suggestions, pointers or examples would help.

Thanks

At the moment, the best approach is to make a separate build for every different language (using the relevant GRC files). ARCHICAD and its API don't currently provide a method to bundle all languages in an add-on and switch on demand. You could implement something like that yourself, but I think it's better/simpler to make separate builds.
