Hi,
I have strange problem, I have application on Windows 2012 Server, where is set locale to Slovak (DecimalSeparator is comma) In my application in DataModuleCreate I explicitly set FormatSettings.DecimalSeparator='.' (dot) All works as expected (decimal numbers are formated with "dot"), but after some time (hours) when application runs, DecimalSeparator changes back to "comma" ?
Is it possible ?
AFAIK International settings are initialised once in sysutils initialization section, or are they reevaluated later ?

They are initialized once in FPC.

But there is a windows message that notifies applications when the settings change:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7385357/window-message-notification-language-and-locale

Maybe lazarus picks it up.

Thank you Michael,
it is exactly so.

Lazarus catch WM_SETTINGCHANGE and calls Application.IntfSettingChange which calls GetFormatSettings in SysUtils
It can be switched off by setting Application.UpdateFormatSettings:=False;

Interesting ...
Thanks
-Laco.
