Problems with default i18n bundle [message #653046]

Just made my first attempt to add multi-language support to my RAP app. I created a default bundle for English and then one for German.

messages.properties
messages_de.properties

My browser was setup to accept German and English in that order so I got the German texts. I then swapped the language prefs in the browser to put English first but I still got German. I tried closing the browser, restarting the app etc. but I still got German. Finally, I added a new bundle, messages_en.properties and now I get English.

Is this the correct behaviour? It is not what I expected...

Hi,

Let me guess - your VM is set to German, right? What happens is that the
Browser asks for English, but RWT does not find a messages_en.properties
file. So it tries the default locale, in your case German and Bingo!
there is a messages_de.properties file. So you get German. If you want to
have English as your fallback, set your VM to English. Does this explain
the behavior?

Regards, Ralf

Hi Ralf,

that makes more sense. I has assumed that when the browser language could not be served then the default bundle is always chosen.

Thanks for helping out!

Paul
