Title Body

Is this true? When you instantiate a UIAlertButton, you have to pass it an explicit title for the Cancel button, like so: UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error" message:err.localizedDescription delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:nil]; That means that if you want a localized app (which of course you do), you have to localize the Cancel string too, even though Apple has obviously got a canonical translation already. Am I really forced to write something like this to handle it (or is this even OK)? NSBundle* uikitBundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[UIButton class]]; UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Error", @"Title for Alert box when error occurs") message:err.localizedDescription delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:NSLocalizedStringFromTableInBundle(@"Cancel", @"Localizable", uikitBundle, nil) otherButtonTitles:nil]; This looks horrible to me, but the idea that I have to maintain my own translations of words mandated by Apple's HIG (like "Cancel" or "OK") seems equally absurd.
