TECHNIQUES TO AUTOMATICALLY BUILD A LANGUAGE DEPENDENCY GRAPH FOR LOCALIZABLE RESOURCES

Techniques to automatically build a language dependency graph for localizable resources are described. A technique may include storing resources from a file in a translation database with data that indicates the language that the resource is in, the entity that created that version of the resource, and a dependency, if any, on a different language version of the resource. Subsequent translations of a resource may also be stored in the translation database in a manner that groups the translated version(s) of a resource to the original resource, and also stores the language of the resource, the entity that translated it, and the dependency to the language from which the resource was translated. A language dependency graph may be generated from the translation database for a file, where the graph reflects the languages of translation and dependency relationships among the translations. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
