对于INI文件的操作,我不多说了,仅仅就如何实现语言界面的切换做一个简单的说明:
首先,必须把所有的INI语言文件的结构统一,这样,我们只要传入INI的文件名,就可以通用了,例如我们可以做一个过程SetLanguage(const FileName:string);,这样只要用SetLanguage('CN.INI')就可以了,第二个需要注意的地方,你应该可以让用户选择语言界面的文件,因此程序启动的时候,应该搜索程序目录下面的所有INI文件,当然,你可以在INI文件里面添加一些附加的东西,例如,判断是否是语言INI文件还是其他的配置文件,显示的文字等等~~~~~,如果你的程序中还使用了类似ShowMessage('File Saved!')之类的语句,那么也应该用变量代替!!!例如:ShowMessage(MSG_FILE_SAVED);然后读取INI的时候,一起读入MSG_FILE_SAVED,这样才能保证所有的信息全部变成相应的语言!如果对于这些嵌入程序的信息你怕一个个很麻烦的话, 可以用数组来做~~~~~~~~
procedure SetLanguage(const FileName:string);
使用这个方法对于大多数的情况已经够了,但是有一个不方便的地方是如果动态创建窗体或者控件的话,就不行了~~~~~:(,不过你可以根据你的需要,可以修改上面的过程,然后在每一个窗体的OnCreate中添加代码就可以了,例如你把上面的过程改成对单个窗体的,就可以了:)。如果还有考虑不到的控件,你自己添加好了~~:),对于一些小程序来说,下面的已经够了:
{****************************************
* 模块说明:利用切换INI切换语言函数*
****************************************}
{****************************************
下面的编译指定表示是否导出成一个INI文件
一般的情况下面,没有必要修改,但需要母本
INI的时候,可以把注释去掉
****************************************}
{$IFNDEF INI_EXPORT}
///{$DEFINE INI_EXPORT}
{$ENDIF}
{****************************************
函数参数说明:
FileName:Ini语言文件名
msg:用于程序中的信息的保存数组
IgnoreTagValue:需要忽略的组件的Tag值
使用举例:
var
Msg:array of string;
.....
SetLanguage(ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0))+'English.Ini',msg,$FF);
那么函数会忽略所有Tag值为$FF的控件

procedure SetLanguage(const FileName: string; var msg: array of string; const IgnoreTagValue: byte = $FF);
