German "Umlaute" with i18n()

[Juergen Suessmaier]

Hi folks,

this might be the wrong newsgroup to ask such a question, but maybe
someone has a quick answer to that:

When I create a German translation for strings used with my program,
everything works just fine - except the "Umlaute", which don't appear
in the widget texts. When I write German texts directly to the widgets
using the setText() method, the "Umlaute" appear as expected, so it
cannot be the font setting that causes the trouble.

The translations were made with KDevelop 1.4.1 (KBabel 0.8 KDE 2.1.2)
and actual translation work is done using i18n(). Dialogs were designed
with QDesigner 1.1, code generation was done with "uic -tr i18n -i <stuff>"
(done by standard Makefile generated by KDevelop).

As I've already had this problem with KDevelop 1.2 and I've also seen
working KDE Programs displaying "Umlaute" correctly, I'm about 100%
sure that I am doing something wrong - but what???

Additional info: Almost all my projects are created by KDevelop using
the "KDE2 mini" project type from the app wizard. Is there any additional
program initialization required for getting these "Umlaute" displayed
or converted properly?

Thanks and regards,
Juergen
