Abstract

See full text

A method and system for creating multi-lingual computer programs by dynamically loading messages is provided. In a preferred embodiment, a user specifies a preferred language in which the computer program will communicate. The computer program has one or more associated message sets, each set in a unique natural language. At least some of the message sets are preferably stored in a message file on the computer system. After the computer program is invoked, a Localizer searches the message file for a message set in the preferred language. After selecting the message set, the Localizer makes a memory allocation request, loads the selected message set into the allocated memory, passes the address of the allocated memory to the computer program, and returns control to the computer program.
