<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribi�:
I'm running python 2.5 on a Debian based system and I'm looking for your
advice on how to set the locale for my application. I've read through the
locale module documentation http://docs.python.org/lib/module-locale.html
and tried a couple of the examples but can't seem to get it working.
For instance, when I attempt to run the following code:
import locale
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de_DE')
I get an exception raised by the application which says:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "locale_test.py", line 2, in <module>
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de_DE')
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 478, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
My questions are; what would be causing this error? Do I need any
additional
packages installed on the system for this locale support to work
properly?
Probably you don't have support for 'de_DE' locale.
Try using locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
and see what you get in response.
How can I get a list of available locales?
I'd like to know how to retrieve that too...
