Two main differences:

  1. Your application/binary rule (Application for instance), must have
    $(HAIKU_LOCALE_LIBS) added to his libs list
  2. A DoCatalogs rule should be defined too, in order to create catalogued items from
    source. The syntax of this rule is as follow:

    DoCatalogs YourApplicationBinaryName : 
      x-vnd.YourApplicationSignature
      :
      list of catalogued source files
    ;
    

Here's AboutSystem Jamfile, doing exactly that:

What if the app is a standalone app instead of integrating into Haiku ??
