[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: Change Locale Portlet

[halversp]

I'm right in the midst of writing just such a task, and I think it's pretty straightforward (assuming you understand how to modify JBoss Portal interceptor chains :-)  The current JBoss component that determines the Locale associated with the current request (org.jboss.portal.core.aspects.server.LocaleInterceptor) does so by looking at 1) the user's account preferences, and 2) the user's browser preferences (in that order). My intent is to extend that component to look for a preferred Locale in the session before trying the other sources (there's actually a comment in the source code alluding to this strategy). A portlet can then just provide an action to set a Locale in the session.  Hope this makes sense.

Of course all your portlets and themes need to be Locale-aware for this to have any effect. Some of the stock JBoss portlets (e.g. Navigation) are not.
