[FormProc-developer] Changes for Localization support

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

Greetings all,

I have just checked in some changes to the CVS server which modify the Validator and Storer interfaces so that
validate() and store() methods now include a Locale object.  If you have written any Validator or Storer implementations
in Java then they will need to be modified to support this change.  I have already modified all of the built in
validators to handle this change.

I am trying to get all of these API-breaking changes in prior to going to 1.0.  The next release will be a 1.0 beta
release, so get your changes in now if you think that it will break the API.

In addition to the change above, the ValidationResult class now includes a getLocale() method which returns the Locale
which was used during the validation.  Right now the ValidationResult.getErrorMessage() method uses the value of
Locale.getDefault() if you do not specify the Locale as an argument to the getErrorMessage() method.  Do you think this
should be changed so it uses the locale used during validation and then falls back to the Locale.getDefault() as a last
resort?  The getErrorMessage(Locale locale) version will of course remain the same and can always be used to explicitly
specify the error message locale to use.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
