As Xiaotian Feng said, N_(x) must be defined somewhere and additionally
to this this definition uses a new syntax where you can specify indexes
of elements you want to set value to, ie. the above is the same as:
const char *virt_types[] = {
[0] = N_("none"),
[1] = N_("para"),
[2] = N_("full")
};
which in turn is the same as:
const char *virt_types[] = {
N_("none"),
N_("para"),
N_("full")
};
The advantage of the new syntax is that you can specify values in any
order and omit some.
