             Summary: Replace null locale by Locale.ROOT
                 Key: SIS-78
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-78
             Project: Spatial Information Systems
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Utilities
            Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
            Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.3


The various methods expecting a {{Locale}} argument interpret {{null}} value as 
a request for "unlocalized" data. This is a legacy from pre-Java 6 days. But 
since Java 6, a new constant can be used for unlocalized data: {{Locale.ROOT}}. 
We should replace all {{null}} locales by {{Locale.ROOT}}. We should also 
consider not accepting anymore null locale argument in most methods, except 
maybe the following ones (because widely used):

* {{IndexedResourceBundle.getResources(Locale)}}
* {{InternationalString.toString(Locale)}}
