Somehow I've the feeling that you mean the _installed_ OpenOffice.org product. You can't place an arbitrary locale data file there. The locale data has to be compiled into a shared library. If this is what you meant, the following holds: > I suppose this xx_XX.xml file must be included if a file which > contains other files. What is its name ?

The name xx_YY.xml derives from the ISO codes that describe the locale, for xx use the lower case ISO 639-1 alpha-2 code, if available for your language, else the ISO 639-2 alpha-3 code. For YY use the upper case ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code. The file must be placed as i18npool/source/localedata/data/xx_YY.xml and conform to i18npool/source/localedata/data/locale.dtd, read the comments there and take i18npool/source/localedata/data/en_US.xml as a template, for example. Also i18npool/source/localedata/localedata.cxx and i18npool/source/localedata/localedata/data/makefile.mk need some corresponding entries. What locale are we talking of here, anyway? For new locales we'll probably have to assign a MS-LCID value and define the corresponding mapping to the ISO codes as well. Eike -- OOo/SO Calc core developer.
