Method Detail

setLocale

public static void setLocale(java.util.Locale locale)

Set the locale to ThreadLocal

Parameters:

locale -

get the locale from ThreadLocal

setL2Locale

public static void setL2Locale(java.util.Locale locale)

fmtToMappedLocale

public static java.util.Locale fmtToMappedLocale(java.lang.String zhLocale)

fmtToMappedLocale

public static java.util.Locale fmtToMappedLocale(java.util.Locale zhLocale)

pickupLocaleFromList

public static java.util.Locale pickupLocaleFromList(java.util.Set<java.util.Locale> locales,
                                                    java.util.Locale preferredLocale)

Iterates over the set of locales to find a locale that best matches the preferredLocale.

A "best match" is defined to be the locale that has the longest common language tag with the preferredLocale. For example, the supported locale 'de' will be returned for a non-supported preferredLocale 'de-DE'.

To meet the custom usage of Chinese language, locale "zh" is not considered as a "match" for any non-supported Chinese locale (zh-*). That is, even if "zh" locale is supported, null will be returned for Chinese locale 'zh-HK' that is not supported.

Parameters:

locales - the set of locales to find the best match from.

preferredLocale - the locale being matched.

Returns:

the best match, if any; null otherwise.

normalizeToLanguageTag

public static java.lang.String normalizeToLanguageTag(java.lang.String localeStr)

normalize a locale string(e.g. 'zh__#Hans', 'zh_CN_#Hans') to language tag(e.g. 'zh-Hans', 'zh-Hans-CN').

isLanguageTag

public static boolean isLanguageTag(java.lang.String languageTag)

validate that an argument is a well-formed BCP 47 tag

Parameters:

languageTag -

Returns:

true if the format is fine
