Clicking a button to switch the language

Question

When I click on the \"sub_changelang\" button, it should change the program language to French for example. I got the following code to change the locale but I have no idea

Answer 1

You can use activity.this.recreate().But it will support from API level 11.

Answer 2

I am using this code to set locale

String languageToLoad  = "fr_FR";
     Locale locale = new Locale(languageToLoad); 
     Locale.setDefault(locale);
     Configuration config = new Configuration();
     config.locale = locale;
     context.getResources().updateConfiguration(config,context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());

Intent intent = new Intent(XYZ.this, XYZ.class);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);

here context is application Base Context. Please also try "fr" instead of "fr_FR" because I am working for Arabic locale and its working fine.

You need to restart your Activity after changing locale.
