Re: How i change the locale language of the application

Hi,

I am also, not finding a way to set the locale in GWT. The only way I  found is to use a query parameter that will re-load the page. However, although the url locale is changed,the actual page doesn't change the language.

Does anyone know why does this happen?

The code for changing the url:

public static void changeLocale(String localeParamName, String newLocale) {

UrlBuilder newUrl = Window.Location.createUrlBuilder();

newUrl.setParameter(localeParamName, newLocale);

Window.Location.assign(newUrl.buildString());

}

At the moment, when using Messages or Constants you can't do that
because the different languages are realized with different HTML-
pages that must be loaded when changing the locale.

I'm thinking about this as well for a while because there are
projects where the change of the Locale during runtime is a
explicit requirement ruling out GWT at the moment.

You can solve that using GWT by not using the Constants/Messages-
framework but with the Dictionary-classes but that eliminates
the advantages you have with the interfaces allowing you to do
the compiler the job of checking the correct spelling of the keys.
