internationalization

What I want to do is provide the user with a spinner which contains several languages, when a language is selected, the app will translate to that language. I have different string files but I have no idea how to implement this. Is this possible? How can I do it? In the res folder, respect this : res/ values/ strings.xml values-es / (here for spanish values) strings.xml values-fr / strings.xml (here for french values) Android loads the appropriate resources according to the locale settings of the device at run time. For more informations, see this . you just need to put different string.xml

I'm trying to add multilanguage support to a Yocto build. Reading the official documentation I've found that the build options that controls locale settings are: GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES IMAGE_LINGUAS Link: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.8/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#var-GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES After a build with the following options: GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES="en_GB.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8" IMAGE_LINGUAS?="en-gb" if I ask to "localectl" the list of available locales, nothing is displayed (command: localectl list-locales).

I am somewhat new to unicode and unicode strings. I'm trying to determine the difference between "fullwidth" symbol and a normal one. Take these two for example: Normal: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/20a9/index.htm Fullwidth: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/ffe6/index.htm I notice that the fullwidth is defined as U+20A9 and coincidentally 20A9 is the normal one. So what is the value of U? When using libraries like ICU is there a way to specify always return normal versus full? Thanks, U+number is a notational convention for a Unicode code point. There is no 'value'

I wonder if it is possible to make your application multilingual by simply creating resource files for every required language Like Resource.resx for English //string abc(name)=xyz(value) Resource.zh.resx for Chinese //string abc(name)=zh(value) And simply placing a string in your view(single view only that support multilingual) string like @appName.Resource.abc and <globalization culture="en-GB" uiCulture="auto:en-GB" /> in Web.Config Now my question is Is this enough to get started with multilingual sites i.e if I change the preferred language in my browser to Chinese the content of page is

How can I use ServletRequest.getLocale() in JSF application, when Servlet is absent in my code and is provided by JSF implementation? I'm trying to use ServletContextListener , but is it possible to reach ServletRequest from ServletContextEvent ? Anyway, what is the correct approach? FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestLocale(); ? The correct way in my opinion is to provide the links on your home page for various locales your application needs to support. This is less intrusive for the end user. Otherwise the end user has to keep changing the locales browser
