[gatein-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (GTNPORTAL-1306) PortletRequest's locale to return user's preference language instead of the locale from Accept-Language header

PortletRequest's locale to return user's preference language instead of the locale from Accept-Language header -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: GTNPORTAL-1306 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-1306 Project: GateIn Portal Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Internationalization and Localization Affects Versions: 3.1.0-CR01, 3.0.0-GA Reporter: Leng Chye Ooi As per reported in the discussion forum ( https://community.jboss.org/thread/152834 ), PortletRequest.getLocale() is returning the locale value based on the HTTP Accept-Language header. My expectation, and I guess most users too, would expect the Change Language action on the portal should also reflected in all the portlets that support internationalization. With a rough experiment, I am able to get the above expected scenario to work if I replace the org.exoplatform.portal.webui.application.ExoUserContext.getLocale() method above with public Locale getLocale() { PortalRequestContext context = PortalRequestContext.getCurrentInstance(); if(context != null) { UIPortalApplication uiPortalApplication = (UIPortalApplication) context.getUIApplication(); Locale locale = uiPortalApplication.getLocale(); if (locale != null) return locale; } return clientRequest != null ? clientRequest.getLocale() : Locale.ENGLISH; } Please advise if this is the correct approach. I am willing to submit a patch for this if need to. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
