How to get locale setting for client from scout session? [message #1604173] Fri, 06 February 2015 12:40 Go to next message

I have noticed that scout session will have a valid locale setting, however if I use any code that depends on default locale I will get the locale set on server. This holds for RAP server and Scout server components.

The thing is though that I know RAP client (in browser) for example has the correct locale set up so there should be a simple way to fetch and use that, right? I probably just missed something in manual but maybe someone can save me some time. Thanks.

Figured it out - on the client to get client's locale: LocaleThreadLocal.get()

Is there a similar utility function on the server-side (to get client's locale)?

NlsUtility.getDefaultLocale() should work both on server and client side. Its javadoc states:

Quote:
Only use this Locale resolver if the calling code is executed in both, server- and client side. On client side, use Locale.getDefault() whereas on server side use LocaleThreadLocal.get().

I guess they mean "serverside" also on RAP server since Locale.getDefault() return's the JVM's locale.

This works LocaleThreadLocal.get() for RAP server and Scout server (I've just checked) so it seems to be what I need. I guess "client" here refers to rich client only and it makes sense from the technical standpoint. Thanks for the info about the other utility method!
