Bundle Localization [message #1063173]

Hi,

I followed the instructions on the RAP internationalization help site to translate my RAP application.

I also created the simple HelloWorld application to verify it's not working as I expected.
There are two properties file in the package 'helloWorld' where also the Messages class resides.
messages.properties and messages_de.properties.
I exptected a client with locale 'de_DE' would be served the messages_de file.
But since it doesn't find a messages_de_DE file it just drops to the default file.

The help site states that it would choose it in the hierachical order I expected.
Is there something I missed?

Sascha

I can't reproduce this with our controls demo and RAP 2.1. I configured
my browser to send this HTTP header:

Accept-Language: de-de,en-us;q=0.7,en;q=0.3

The translation from the NLSTabMessages_de.properties file is chosen as
expected.

Which RAP version do you use?

BTW, I've recently updated the i18n help article [1].

Regards,
Ralf

Sorry for not mentioning it. We still use RAP 1.5

That should be no different with RAP 1.5. Selecting the properties file
is done by the class PropertyResourceBundle [1], not by RAP. What does
RWT.getLocale() give you?

RWT.getLocale() always returns the first entry of the Accept-Language header.

ResourceBundle shows the same behaviour. It always defaults to the current system locale. Since mine is german it choses the de_DE file.
I can circumvent it by passing a "-nl en" parameter to my rap application.

Sascha

The ResourceBundle returns the strings in the correct hierarchical order.
The locale 'en_US' is served by the 'messages_en' file.

I would like to use the solution i found at stackoverflow [1] to use an empty 'en' file which then uses the default language file when it does not find the key.
This works for my ResourceBundle test but in RAP i get a java.util.MissingResourceException when the messages_en.properties file doesn't contain the appropriate key.
