lang::message::get_embedded_vars (public)

 lang::message::get_embedded_vars message

Defined in packages/acs-lang/tcl/lang-message-procs.tcl

Returns a list of embedded substitution variables on the form %varname% in a message. This is useful if you want to check that the variables used in a translated message also appear in the en_US message. If not, there's likely to be a typo.

Parameters:

message (required)

A message with embedded %varname% notation

Returns:

The list of variables in the message
