Locale String Mapping Tables

It is assumed that you have read the document Introduction to Internationalization and are familiar with the various internationalization approaches described there.

A locale provides a means of identifying a specific region for the purposes of internationalization and localization. EntireX sends properties of the operating system locale to the Broker, using the locale string.

This document provides tables used during the process of mapping the locale string to codepages within the broker for the internationalization approaches ICU conversion and SAGTRPC User Exit. It does not apply to the other approaches. The locale string is case-insensitive, also dashes '-' and underscores '_' are ignored (dashes and underscore improve human readability) when the broker examines the mapping tables described here.

This document covers the following topics:

See also Broker Attributes.


Mapping Table Usage by Internationalization Approach

The following table provides an overview of what table to use for each internationalization approach.
