Despite voices against, I decided to use gettext in my Ada program.
I could form a string as a concatenation:
"Wrong number of predicates <" & URL & "> in node " & URL2 & "."
but this cannot be used with gettext.
I need instead single string like
"Wrong number of predicates <%s> in node %s."
as in C.
The syntax may be different than in C, for example:
"Wrong number of predicates <{arg1}> in node {arg2}."
Which Ada (2012) library would you suggest for such short string templates?
