#14 v:calendar and locales

[GrzegorzOledzki]

The parameters passed to v:calendar should not be locale-dependent. I believe only the output printed to the user should depend on locales, but the syntax of parameters for web designers should be well-defined and independent from locales.

BTW it's not well-documented where to set literal locale property in order to see v:calendar example working.

Hello,

You must specify the locale which be used to parse literal date properties :

<v:dateEntry literalLocale="fr" minDate="31/1/2000" />
<v:dateEntry literalLocale="en" value="1-31-2000" maxDate="4-3-2008"/>

But you can use the "literalLocale" property of <v:init> tag in order to define the "literalLocale" value for the whole page.

Or you can specify into the context-param "org.rcfaces.core.LITERAL_LOCALE" (web.xml) the default value for the whole application.

But I realized that I have forgotten the property "literalLocale" for the "dateItem" component !
The next release (>I2250) will add this forgotten literalLocale property.

Regards,

Olivier.
