Locale

The Locale property specifies the language code, country or territory, and, optionally, the associated character code set. The value of this property determines cultural conventions such as collation and sort order of data, date and time formats, and the symbols used in monetary specifications.

A locale name has the following format:

ll_TT.codeset

where:
ll is a two-character language code (in lowercase letters)
TT is a two-letter country or territory code (in uppercase letters)
codeset is the name of the associated character code set (may be optional).

By default, only a subset of supported locales are listed. To add other supported values to the list, you modify the \Data\Std\stdConnProps.xml file in the product directory.

If the connector has not been internationalized, the only valid value for this property is en_US. To determine whether a specific connector has been globalized, refer to the user guide for that adapter.

Default value: en_US

Possible values: This is a subset of the supported locales:
en_US, ja_JP, ko_KR, zh_CN, zh_TW, fr_FR, de_DE, it_IT, es_ES, pt_BR

Update method: Component restart
