public Locale(String language,
String country,
String variant)
ISO-639 and ISO-3166
You right I really dislike regular expression : short but inepressive
and error prone. I didn't write this in a rigorous way. I trow it to
ask : Is there a preferred way to write locale setting :
"fr_CH"
["fr" "CH"]
:fr :CH
...
or just : (java.util.Locale. "fr" "CH")
In fact the only important code is :
final static public Var LOCALE =
Var.intern(CLOJURE_NS, Symbol.create("*locale*"), null);
(defn format
"Formats a string using java.lang.String.format, see
java.util.Formatter for format
string syntax"
[fmt & args]
(let [locale (or *locale*
(java.util.Locale/getDefault))]
(String/format locale fmt (to-array args))))
Just two lines :
A dynamic var in Clojure for setting locale.
And using it systematically when writing i33n and l11n codes.
Then you would use third-party library with-out regretting your non-
latin non-english status.
