Purpose

Localisation -allows the Symbian device to handle locale-sensitive information: for example -language used and how the date and currency are displayed. This collection -makes up what Symbian platform defines as a locale.

On Symbian platform, -the locale settings are stored in class TLocale.

-
Architecture

There -are two sets of locale settings, those that are hard-coded into the phone -and those that are stored in a locale.dll. The device -creator produces both the hard-coded localisation settings and the locale.dll.

-
Description

The -localisation API is used to set locale-sensitive information that can be changed -by the user; namely, locale, calendar settings, country code, currency format, -date and time format, numerical values and time zone information.

-
Using Localisation -Support

The locale DLL is created by the phone manufacturer and -only the settings application provided by the UI vendor can change the settings -or values.

The locale setup process is controlled by the EStart component -and goes through three phases:

    -

  • Set the hard-coded defaults,

    • -

  • Load the locale from -the HAL settings and load the required locale, and

    • -

  • Request update notifications

    • -

The device creator produces both the hard-coded values and the locale.dll.

The -locale DLL files are named on the pattern eloc1.XYZ, -where XYZ is the language number as defined by TLanguage enumeration -defined in e32lang.h.
