Using language in Spring

Question

I am trying to use LocaleResolverfrom Spring to change the language of the page whenever the user wants. The source language should be Portuguese, but it does not work as expected:

@Bean
public LocaleResolver localeResolver() {
    CookieLocaleResolver localeResolver = new CookieLocaleResolver();
    localeResolver.setDefaultLocale(new Locale("pt-BR"));//StringUtils.parseLocaleString("en")

    return localeResolver;
}

Answer 1

I'm not sure what you mean, but "it doesn't work as expected," but you are using the Locale constructor incorrectly. The first language and country are separated by an underscore, not a minus sign, and the only String argument constructor is for the language only. Thus, you have two valid options:

new Locale("pt", "BR")

or

StringUtils.parseLocaleString("pt_BR")
