[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Updated: (HV-36) DefaultValidatorMessages_ja.properties

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-36?page=com.... ] WATANABE Takashi updated HV-36: ------------------------------- Attachment: 20070725_2305.patch.txt As far as I know, JAN(Japan(ese) Article Number) is a kind of EAN. So the algorithm perfectly matches JAN. JAN uses the number system "49"(or "45"). 49 MMMMM PPPPP C 45 MMMMM PPPPP C 45 MMMMMMM PPP C (for newcomers because of the resource shortage) 49 MMMM P C 45 MMMM P C M: Manufacturer code / P: Product code / C: Check digit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_GS1_country_codes JAN is also a barcode standard specified by JIS-X-0501 (JIS: Japanese Industrial Standards), and used for almost all products distributed in retail stores in Japan. (Sorry, I have never read JIS X 0501) Unfortunately, EAN is not well-known in Japan, but JAN is rather famous, and I decided to just translate EAN to JAN. Of course, you can use EAN instead of JAN if you'd like. BTW, the Japanese call JAN "JAN code". (I don't know why the word "code" is necessary) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
