Claudio Miranda commented on JBLOGGING-84:
------------------------------------------

I believe this RFE is related to the case I will describe, if not I will open a new RFE.

Having come from a JBoss AS background, so it is more related to it.

The needs come to have a property to set the default locale of jboss logging, and not depend upon default locale (-Duser.country=BR and -Duser.language=pt).


However I see from the current code, it is not possible.

org.jboss.logging.Messages.java

     public static <T> T getBundle(Class<T> type, Locale locale) {
         String language = locale.getLanguage();
         String country = locale.getCountry();
         String variant = locale.getVariant();

The simplest case to solve it to create a property at jvm level and in the describing code above, check for that property and use it, using as fallback the current implementation, what do you think ?

Why I ask that ?


>From a application server point of view.

1. Its kind of weird to deal with some translations for technical terms, they just don't sound right. I am not blaming the translation text, only that it doesn't fit in the technical view to analyze logs and messages.

2. Not all messages are localized, so printing only english messages looks more consistent

3. If the user wants to search in the internet for help, it is not going to have success with this term "Sessão de correio limitado"

4. The user who uses an application servers is expected to understand many technical terms in english language, so he already understand relevant english terms to read the english log messages.

5. There are accents in many translated words, when they are displayed in terminal consoles (with different charset encoding), it only show a binary character instead of the accented char.
