Thanks for answering, really.
About the myapp.mo to xiliunsystem.mo, well it is called 
"xiliunsystem.mo" but i was trying towrite a more anonymous mail :P

And yes, the application Working Dir is ok.

Thanks anyway, i'll try that and get back to you soon.

Well.. about glib-i18n.h, i couldn't find it in my system. So i googled 
it and only two results appeared which makes me think that's not the 
problem. Another thing about my app is that the "intl.h".
