lang::catalog::export_to_file (private)

 lang::catalog::export_to_file [ -descriptions_list descriptions_list ] \
    file_path messages_list

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

Export messages for a certain locale and package from the database to a given XML catalog file. If the catalog file already exists it will be backed up to a file with the same name but the extension .orig added to it. If there is an old backup file no new backup is done.

Switches:

-descriptions_list

(optional)

Parameters:

file_path - The path of the catalog file to write messages to. The filename needs to be parseable by apm_parse_catalog_path. The file and the catalog directory will be created if they don't exist.
messages_list - A list with message keys on even indices followed by corresponding messages on odd indices.
