Xcode 6 localization. export .xliff file will cut the string when the string is like "this is sample \"text\""

Question

This is the Objective-C code:

NSString *text = NSLocalizedString(@"Test \"this is a sample text\"", @"Test \"this is a sample text\"");

and this is the result in .xliff file:

So as you can see, the id and source is missing. Can any one fix this? Or it is Xcode bug?

Answer 1

It seems Xcode 6.3 fixed this bug.

Answer 2

Seems to be a bug in the way Xcode handles the .strings -> .xliff conversions, and so on. You'll have to wait for Apple to fix it.

May I suggest using curly quotes in the meantime?

@"Text “this is a sample text”"

It seems to export to XLIFF properly.
