qt - Is it safe to check if a string equals to a qsTr string in a multi language app - qml -

so if have following property:

property string somestring: qstr("text")

and have following function:

function isequal(tothisstring) {   if (somestring === tothisstring) {     return true   } else      return false   } } 

my question if application has translation other language other english. function still compare "text" or compare translated string?

an example qt:

const qstring english = "hello world"); const qstring spanish = qobject::tr(english); // hola mundo 

is equal?

qdebug() << "is equal? " << (english == spanish);  qdebug() << "is equal? " << (qobject::tr(english) == spanish); 

result:

is equal? false equal? true 

you have translate every string, , should same string exactly. it's dificult manage, looks recipe disaster.

you have use alternative data field compare values, avoid strings. example qcombobox:

enum countries {eeuu = 0, spain, france}; qcombobox* combo = new qcombobox; combo->additem(qobject::tr("eeuu"), eeuu); combo->additem(qobject::tr("spain"), spain); combo->additem(qobject::tr("france"), france); 

to selected country or compare field in combo model, use currentdata() function or this.
