Sharan Foga updated OFBIZ-5362:
-------------------------------
Sprint: Bug Crush Event - 21/2/2015
> Create a periodic service to use ICU4J for updating i18n data
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-5362
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5362
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Jacques Le Roux
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: ICU4J, data, i18n
>
> This was proposed by Adrian in OFBIZ-5301, here is the (adapted) quote of our
> comments:
> {quote}
> Jacques: There are no (yet) easy ways (as for countries) to check and
> especially follow changes for other data like: languages, UOMs and currencies.
> Adrian: We can have the framework updating those. After the library is
> updated, we can run a service that queries the library and updates the
> database.
> Jacques: Actually I don't know much about ICU4J yet, but it seems it's worth
> doing it then. Just that we will need also to backport in releases. This can
> be done while updating ICU4J lib, say every 6 months or even when creating a
> new release.
> On ICU4J updates, we would run this service based on updated ICU4J lib and it
> will update the concerned data files (rather than DB BTW)
> For the countries, I wonder if it's worth it. Because the manual process I
> thought about would take few minutes on every change. But as I explained the
> 3166 newsletter exists, so far, only for countries. For other cases it's
> harder to keep the data updated manually. You have to muck around in ISO
> or/and wikipedia sites to fish the information.

> Please Adrian add any correction or information needed, thanks
