Mention cache in translation page

[pdugas]

I got bit by this so I thought I'd mention it. I added FOW\UserBundle to my app after I'd been working on other pieces. I found the strings on FOSUB's stock login page and others were not being translated. I found I needed to add the config entry to enable translation but that didn't fix the issue. I needed to clear my cache before the change was applied. Perhaps a little blurb suggesting "cache:clear" next to the instructions for adding the config entry is in order?

Hi Paul-

I'm not sure about this quite yet. When you add the translator configuration entry, the configuration should automatically reload in the dev environment. I've just tried this and verified that it behaves that way (of course, you will need to clear the cache for the prod environment). However, I swear that I've done this before and seen the behavior your described. Can you repeat this issue, or shed more light on what part confused you? I do want to be as clear as possible.

Thanks!

@weaverryan The issue is when you add a translation file. In this case, the kernel does not know that the cache needs to be refreshed as this file is not in the list of watched resources yet.

I just tried to recreate it but wasn't able to. I pulled a copy of sf2_std, added FOSUB, then pointed a browser to /login and got the untranslated strings. I added framework.translator.fallback to my config, hit /login again, and got the translated strings. Weird.

I didn't add any of my own translation files but perhaps adding FOSUB and the translations it includes triggers the situation @stof described. Not sure.

I'll let you close this issue if you like since I'm not sure what else I may have done to trigger the situation I was in. I've been tinkering with all kinds of things in this project lately so I'm not sure how to reproduce it.

Well, it would cause problems, as @stof mentioned, if you already had the translator enabled, but then brought in a new bundle (like the UserBundle) that included new translation files. That's actually exactly what I experienced before.

What do you think about this? deccf86

That would have saved me some time :)

Thanks.

Beautiful, that's the goal :)
