Hi Kris

Yes, it works, with -Duser.language.

Unfortunately, I am looking for a way to change the default/initial locale, and then using these system properties to change the effective locale again. :-)

Precisely, there is a test using grep to match warning messages and on a Chinese Windows it cannot find the hardcoded English text. Since I only have Windows in English, I need to a way to mimic a Chinese Windows first, and then see if adding -Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US to the test will make it work again.

On a Mac it's much easier.

Thanks
Max

Hi Max,

Does setting -Duser.country=CN work for you? (I don't remember what the
correct name for China should be, but setting that to US forces java to
print the help message in English)

    My Windows 10 is English, but I want the java command to show
    Chinese help screen temporarily.

    I've tried "set LANG", chcp, "control intl.cpl,, /f:" but none works.

    Thanks
