This means that the new translation is available instantly when switching
target languages. It can also reduce space leaks problems in the server
somewhat by avoiding repeated parsing of the source text.
The PGF web API commands parse, translate, translategroup, c-parse and
c-translate now support a lexer parameter. Possible values are "text",
"code" and "mixed".
This is used in the Wide Coverage Demo App to save one server roundtrip.
+ Adapt language selection menus to the languages supported by the grammar.
+ Add translation quality colors to the links to alternative translations.
+ Also added more country codes in langcode.js (needed for speech synthesis
voice selection).
In support.js, the functions http_get_json, ajax_http_get_json
and ajax_http_post_json now calls the supplied error callback if the server
returns invalid JSON (e.g. because of a crash).
The function gftranslate.translate in gftranslate.js returns
a JSON value containing an error message (since it doesn't have an error
callback).
This should result in fewer situations where "nothing happens" and the user
doesn't know if it is beacuse the server is slow, or if there was an error.
+ PGFService.hs: add command c-grammar, include probability in parse results
+ js/gftranslation.js: add start position and limit parameters, return more
info to applications
+ Simple Translator: show two wide coverage translations
+ Wide coverage demo: show parse tree and probability (intended as grammar
debugging aids)
The interface to the wide coverage translation is in js/gftranslate.js
and it assumes that the grammar is installed on the cloud server
as /robust/Translate8.pgf.
The list of supported languages is hardwired in gftranslate.js, since
there is no support for obtaining this info from the C run-time system
at the moment.
