Interface IOutputTranslationMemory

Represents an output translation memory to be created within a migration project, to which the contents of one or more legacy translation memories (or language directions within such TMs) will be migrated. Holds settings required to create the new translation memory (InputLanguageDirections, TranslationMemoryCreator and Setup) and provides status information on the migration process.

Namespace: Sdl.LanguagePlatform.TranslationMemoryApi.Upgrade

Assembly: Sdl.LanguagePlatform.TranslationMemoryApi.dll

Syntax

public interface IOutputTranslationMemory

Properties

ExpectedTUCount

Gets the estimated number of translation units this output translation memory will contains after the migration is complete. Can be used for progress notifications. This is

-1

if this number is not available (or cannot easily be obtained).

Declaration

int ExpectedTUCount { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Int32

InputLanguageDirections

The collection of input language direction data, from which content should be imported into the output translation memory.

Declaration

IInputLanguageDirectionDataCollection InputLanguageDirections { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IInputLanguageDirectionDataCollection

Setup

Gets the setup information to be used for creating the output translation memory.

Declaration

ITranslationMemorySetupOptions Setup { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ITranslationMemorySetupOptions

TranslationMemory

Gets the newly created translation memory. Returns null before the translation memory has been created.

Declaration

ITranslationMemory TranslationMemory { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ITranslationMemory

TranslationMemoryCreator

Gets or sets a ITranslationMemoryCreator object, which should be usd for creating the output translation memory.

Declaration

ITranslationMemoryCreator TranslationMemoryCreator { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ITranslationMemoryCreator

Methods

CreateTranslationMemory()

Creates the output translation memory if it has not been created yet.

Declaration

void CreateTranslationMemory()

Import(IInputLanguageDirectionData, EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs>)

Imports the content of the specified input language direction data sets into the output TM.

Declaration

void Import(IInputLanguageDirectionData languageDirectionData, EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs> progressEventHandler)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IInputLanguageDirectionData	languageDirectionData	The input language direction data to import.
System.EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs>	progressEventHandler	Progress delegate; can be null.

IsValid(out String)

Determines whether the output translation memory is valid. It returns false and a user-friendly localised error message if it is not.

Declaration

bool IsValid(out string errorMessage)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	errorMessage	error message

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	whether output translation memory valid

PopulateSetup()

Automatically populate the setup information based on the language directions currently present in InputLanguageDirections. This will reset any setup information in the output translation memory that is currently present. All changes to the setup should be done before the output translation memory is created.

Declaration

void PopulateSetup()

Process(EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs>)

Creates the output translation memory and import all content.

Declaration

void Process(EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs> progressEventHandler)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.EventHandler<ProgressEventArgs>	progressEventHandler	A delegate which can be used to monitor progress and to cancel the migration process. May be null.

Remarks

This method assumes that all the input translation memories have been exported to TMX and will throw an exception if this is not the case.

Validate()

Validates whether this output translation memory is ready to be processed. Throws an xception if it is not.

Declaration

void Validate()
