Geoff Callender commented on TAPESTRY-1997:
-------------------------------------------
I've just confirmed that country codes should not be lower case. From the
javadoc for Locale (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/index.html)
regarding the constructors for Locale:
"The country argument is a valid ISO Country Code. These codes are the
upper-case, two-letter codes as defined by ISO-3166. You can find a full list
of these codes at a number of sites, such as:
http://www.iso.ch/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/02iso-3166-code-lists/list-en1.html";
> PersistentLocale is lower-casing locales

> Key: TAPESTRY-1997
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1997
> Project: Tapestry
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.0.6
> Reporter: Geoff Callender
>
> An issue affecting localization: PersistentLocale is converting locales from
> mixed case to all lower case, which is useless for formatting. For example,
> if page 1 sets the locale like this:
> @Inject
> private PersistentLocale _persistentLocaleService;
> Locale locale = Locale.UK;
> _persistentLocaleService.set(locale);
> System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " +
> locale.getDisplayName());
>
> then this is what prints:
> locale is en_GB - English (United Kingdom)
> But when I'm in page 2 I get the locale and find it has mutated...
> Locale locale = _persistentLocaleService.get();
> System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " +
> locale.getDisplayName());
> ...this is what prints:
> locale is en_gb - en_gb
> This mutated locale in page 2 is useless for formatting. Code like the
> following produces default-styling instead of the styling for en_GB:
> _myDateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG, locale);
> System.out.println(_myDateFormat.format(new Date()));
> It seems this has also adversely affected how supported-locales are declared
> (maybe in previous releases only). See
