Обсуждение: errcontext function

Hi,

I wonder why all messages going through errcontext function are not
translatable. I found this when working on PL/pgsql but it seems other
functions (like COPY, see backend/commands/copy.c) call errcontext and
none propose translatable messages.

Can I send a patch so we can translate them ?

Regards.

I don't think it's errcontext's fault.  The PLs in general don't have
any translation coverage.  This seems a bit difficult to fix: I don't
think we'd wish to put their messages into the main backend's message
domain, but AFAICT gettext can only support one active domain at
a time.

OK, I understand quite well. Thanks for your answer.
