[solved] Use of the global TL_LANG inside of local templates

[newgate]

Hi Contao Developers!

I'm currently trying to get some translations stored in a file inside the "en" directory in my module (mymodule/languages/en/my_language_file.php) directly into a template file located in TL_ROOT/templates/my_template_file.xhtml.

This is a temporary measure since I will put this template file in the module directory in a few months (once i get enough time to make it properly). Just in case someone feels the need to ask why ; )

Unfortunately, the global variable TL_LANG is not available in this environment. Is there a way to make it so?

Btw, I would appreciate it if someone could enlighten me about the internationalization system. Where in the code is located the lecture of all language files of all modules? I did some research but didn't found anything...

Thanks for the help!

I finally find out the answer to my question.

The System class give us access to a marvellous function that is loadLanguageFile(), knowing that it is now easy to load any language file into a local template.

The example below show you how to load the tl_form.php file located in system/modules/backend/languages/en/tl_form.php.
