Do the following server console messages always appear in English, or does the language depend on the installed language of SQL Anywhere 11.0.1? Starting checkpoint of "ddd11" (ddd11.db) at Fri Jan 21 2011 07:18 Finished checkpoint of "ddd11" (ddd11.db) at Fri Jan 21 2011 07:18 I am writing code to watch for checkpoints by calling sa_server_messages() every once in a while, and I want to tell the "Starting" apart from the "Finished". I am happy to build in a table of translations... IF I knew what words are actually used :) Thanks! |

SQL Anywhere Network Server Version 11.0.1.2427 in a German setup (the same with 12.0.0.2601):
Graeme will help to translate:) Volker suggested using dblang.exe, and that works pretty well... except that the result for several languages is not readable, in either the resulting dbeng11 -o file or the result set returned by sa_server_messages. Here are the checkpoint-related excerpts from all the -o files produced after dblang.exe changed the language: LANG_DE.txt I. 22.01 05:53:04.

Yep, "Checkpoints" is the first German word I learned after "der Lippenstift", though I don't use either one all that often. :-) @Volker: It doesn't answer the title question? I thought it did... unless "Start des Checkpoints..." isn't German :) 2
Server messages are written to the console log file in OS language & OS character set. Characters in some languages are not representable in some character sets. Fetching messages from the server via sa_server_messages() will also pass the strings through a translation to database charset then to client charset. Parsing messages in multiple languages and character sets will be very, very painful. @Breck: Interestingly enough, the really well-done German doc setup doesn't have a translation for "Checkpoint", so, yes, Graeme is right, it's an German word, obviously ... cf. http://dcx.sybase.com/index.html#1200de/dbreference/checkpoint-statement.html. It's nice that SQLA helps me understanding my native language better:) @Breck: According to the timestamps, the German version is the fastest w.r.t. checkpointing - now that's OK with me:) 1
Under Russian Windows (SA10.0.1.4157 on WinXP SP3 Prof Rus), it is perfectly readable as follows: I. 23/01 00:08:13. Запуск контрольной точки "trade" (trade.db) в Вс 23 Янв 2011 00:08 I. 23/01 00:08:13. Завершение контрольной точки "trade" (trade.db) в Вс 23 Янв 2011 00:08 (not that it makes sense for those who does not know Russian :)) More comments hidden

BTW, what about testing/"debugging" with the DBLANG tool?
@Volker: Awesome suggestion! ( hope it works :)
