Localization in BIRT

Megha Nidhi Dahal

Hello All, 
 
How can I set the locale in the designer? I can see <pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>reportContext.getLocale()</pre>
Is there any api to set the locale? I would be receiving the locale as a report parameter. 
 
I'm not very familiar with localization in BIRT, I have the following understanding (please correct me if wrong): 
<ul class='bbcol decimal'><li>If I'm able to change the default locale in the runtime, then the following would happen.</li><li>All Numbers used within the report will be formatted as per the locale if I set the locale in the Format Number tab to Auto.</li><li>This will happen automatically and no additional scripting is to be done.</li></ul>
Need help ASAP! 
 
Best Regards 
MND

I wrote a post about this. If you are recieving the locale as a param, you can use the reportContext.getMessage function to open your properties files based on the locale. There are other ways also, such as using a ResourceBundle. This way you are not just tied to the systems locale. Its in the documentation, also check the BIRT Wiki.
