Hi Jonathan,

You seem to have an assumption that the same number of chars (code units) means the same rendered text width. But that assumption is often not valid. I'd rather suggest use of locale-neutral formats, such as ISO 8601 date-time formats.

Yes, and I think what you suggested is how Date.toString() used to do.
Maybe "uu MM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy" is my final solution.

Many thanks!
Jonathan


Thanks,

Hi Naoto,

Thanks for your suggestion.

I've tried SimpleDateFormat, but met the problem of making a common pattern string for all Locales. The Date.toString() approach is using pattern "EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy", but it does not work for me, failed cases are like "mar. déc. 30 19:44:43 CST 0002" and "dim. sept. 30 02:49:58 CST 4992" in fr_FR locale.

As described in Java spec, the text, month presentation will use full form if the number of pattern letters is 4/3 or more, other wise short form or number form will be used. But my problem is that the short/long forms in the same locale do not have the same length. So the only working pattern for me is "uu MM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy" which is almost completely composed by numbers and looks the same in all locales. Any better idea on how to modify the pattern?

I've made a simple test to test the vertical alignment of outputs,

Hi Jonathan,

If you need to format dates with exact format you desire, you can use SimpleDateFormat class instead. That way the user would see months/weekdays localized and still you can control the output length. Downside is that the format you specify may not be the preferred one for the user for that locale.

BTW, your regression test sets the default locale to some specific ones, and do not restore the original locale. That could result in some erroneous behavior in the succeeding tests. Original locale should be reset at the end.

Hello i18n-dev,

Here's a question about output multiple lines in console under different locales, I firstly raised it in security-dev list, and proposed a patch http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2012-April/004760.html
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~luchsh/7163483/

but found no good solution for the problem of how to format the many
fields of time string to be aligned in a column so far, so I'm
forwarding the mail to i18n-dev, hope to get some suggestions since it
is related to string format in different locales.

Weijun has posted the question to core-libs-dev list, but no response yet. http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2012-April/010033.html

Could anybody please help to take a look?

Thanks

Hi Jonathan

Some comments:

1. Can you be sure that the new format always has the same length?
jarsigner tries to output in a tabular style and each column should be
aligned.

2. You might need to reformat the modified line to make it fit into 80
characters width.

3. Why not include the test inside the changeset?

Thanks
Max

The problem is that command "jarsigner -verify -verbose my.jar" does not format date string according to current locale. following simple test
 case can be used to disclose this problem.
