Data Widgets 3.7.0 throws missing text errors

[martinkoelewijn]

After upgrading to Data Widgets 3.7.0 in a Dutch (nl_NL) project, I get hundreds if not thousands of errors concerning missing texts in the Datagrid 2 instances. Apparently we need to manually go over these and fill the texts. In a small project I get ~430 errors, in a big one it's capped at 1337 errors, basically meaning we can never update Data Widgets anymore unless we want to develop RSI.

I expect at least some of the following:

• nl_NL being supported out of the box
• these texts being translatable from system texts in the modeler or via an enumeration with translatable captions for all I care; at least some default configuration and/or bulk update tool, as we don't need to have different texts in each datagrid
• default en_US texts being used so we at least don't have all these blocking errors, and we can translate if and when we feel like it

For whoever reads this before it's improved: there may be a workaround via batch translate. To be able to batch translate, you need multiple languages in your project. So first add en_US, then download Data Widgets again if the translatable strings aren't in the list, then batch translate (be sure to have all modules checked) and then remove en_US again.

This isn't really a viable solution though:

• it has to be repeated for all projects
• it results in thousands of changes to commit, depending on the number of grids and number of (supposedly) translated strings; this may also complicate future merges if you have several branches
• you can't cherry pick; you have to batch translate everything so you may want to be complete and translate every string in the list
• it's a temporary fix: every new Datagrid2 you add after this process will complain again about missing texts
