I was wondering if the X-OmegaT version currently available needed to be updated in order to support some launch arguments (from the .ini file).

My particular case:

It is now possible to use Version 2 of Google translate API in OmegaT (version 2.5.0) but to do so, one needs to supply the program with a personal API key. It can be done through the .ini file (OmegaT.l4J.ini) or by using launch arguments in the command panel (-Dgoogle.api.key=XXXXXX).

I am asking because I tried both ways with the X-software and it does not seem to work (i.e. my translation requests to Google are either ignored or not sent at all, I can't tell)

My API key is valid and works on the non-portable version of OmegaT.

Thank you!]]> Mon, 12 Dec 2011 19:44:26 +0100 http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605 Re: Support for launch arguments in X-OmegaT http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605 I had a look to OmegaT website and i found actually the "stable/standard" version is still 2.3
Latest 2.5.0.04 is a Beta versionand it is not included in our update planning. Usually we test/update our portable versions only with "official/stable" releases.
So, please, be patient and wait until newest 2.5 version will be officially released.]]> Taf Tue, 13 Dec 2011 08:05:22 +0100 http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605 Re: Support for launch arguments in X-OmegaT http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605
But just for the sake of discussion, let's forget I use version 2.5.0, as launch arguments were available in previous versions as well (to specify memory allocation for example).

If I wanted to use such arguments, where should I use them? I tried adding them to the OmegaT.l4J.ini that comes with the original program but it seems that this file is bypassed when used with a portable software.

Should I add them in the X-OmegaT.ini file?

E.g.
[FileToRun]
PathToExe=$Lib$\Java\bin\javaw.exe
Parameters=-Duser.home="%OmegaTProfileDir%" -jar -Xmx512M OmegaT.jar

I tried doing this as well but it does not seem to work. Am I missing something?

Thank you again!]]> Bichongo Wed, 14 Dec 2011 17:33:53 +0100 http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605 Re: Support for launch arguments in X-OmegaT http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605

I am an absolute beginner for OmegaT, so forgive me for any error...

Maybe you misplaced the option.
I have just read into the OmegaT manual that all the commandline options must be written BEFORE calling the OmegaT.jar, as follows

Parameters=-Duser.home="%OmegaTProfileDir%" -Xmx512M -jar OmegaT.jar

I tried myself to modify this row into the X-OmegaT.ini, and it correctly runs (anyway, I don't know if this is enough for you to state that it works...).
Hope this helps.
Best Regards

I believe you are absolutely right. I was trying this on a system for which I do not have administrator's rights and it's the reason why it did not work.

I was actually trying to use a portable version to bypass the limitations imposed by my not being an administrator.

Every argument seems to work on a machine where I do have these rights.

Thanks!]]> Bichongo Wed, 21 Dec 2011 16:57:00 +0100 http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605 Re: Support for launch arguments in X-OmegaT http://www.winpenpack.com/en/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?52605
