[rules-users] Date format [MMM-dd-yyyy] can NOT work in Chinese environment. How to set locale or language of drools?

[Héron Nicolas]

Hello, 
 the default date format is "dd-MMM-yyyy"
if you want to change there is a property to change drools.dateformat
you can set it like this 
System.setProperty( "drools.dateformat", "dd/MM/YYYY" );
you can also set the the next properties like this 
System.setProperty( "drools.defaultlanguage", "en" );
System.setProperty( "drools.defaultcountry" ,"US" );
that will override the default settings which are "en" and "US"
regards
