gwt-locale: A Java repository from foal

GWT java.util.Locale emulation

Emulation use the https://github.com/foal/gwt-language-tag internally. It provide almost all methods to work with Locale. Also it provide base set of registered locales as it defined in original java.util.Locale class.

All registered locales a returned by Locale.getAvailableLocales() call.

To register new locale you can use the org.jresearch.gwt.locale.client.locale.LocaleRegistry that allows to register new Locales based on components of languageTag.

There is also possible to create new locale by constructor of java.util.Locale, but such locale considering as temporary, and will not register automatically.

Issues about the adaptation should be reported here at GitHub.

There is also the separate GWT module GWT-locale-CLDR that provides the constants for all supported CLDR locales. The locales will be automatikally registerd if you add the module to the project
