Return values
string

The raw string.

setHandler()

Assigns a translation handler object to $handlers.

public static setHandler(string $domain, Handler $handler) : void

Type hinting isn't used on purpose. You should extend a custom translation handler passed here from the Horde_Translation interface, but technically it's sufficient if you provide the API of that interface.

Parameters
$domain : string

The translation domain.

$handler : Handler

An object implementing the Horde_Translation_Handler interface.

Return values
void

t()

Returns the translation of a message.

public static t(string $message) : string
Parameters
$message : string

The string to translate.

Return values
string

The string translation, or the original string if no translation exists.
