transifex bot and case sensitivy of language tags - sualfred - 2019-08-26

I'm using transifex for my projects since years and recently configured the auto pull request feature of them so I don't have to manually download completed languages.
It works very well but the only issue I have is that Transifex is changing the folder name from resource.language.pt_pt to resource.language.pt_PT for example.

I do not have a LE/CE/Linux/etc system running to check if this will cause case sensitivy issues. Can anybody give me a "it's okay. No problems and Kodi will handle it correctly" Smile ?

Just tested on a CoreELEC system and renaming a skins language sub directory from resource.language.en_gb to resource.language.en_GB works fine, no missing text that I can see, it doesn't seem to be case sensitive.

Awesome, thanks for the quick test.

Yep, also confirmed in Kodi's source:- https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/guilib/LocalizeStrings.cpp#L97

c++:
std:Confusedtring pathname = CSpecialProtocol::TranslatePathConvertCase(pathname_in + language);

The paths case gets converted.
