Java: Locale p1

In this tutorial we will create JavaFX app that uses selected Locale to pull i18n (Internationalization) text.


Note:

• round buttons
• selected county name
• text in different character set
• money notation depending on selected country

Step : create a new IntelliJ Module

• Module name DisplayLocale
• create packages as shown in the picture below
• find country flags icons about 64x64x
• get some translation texts

Step: Create your translation .profile files

Example Australian English file

morning_greeting=G'day Mate!evening_greeting=G'evening Mate!

Step: Create class DisplayLocaleMain extends Application

Note:

• import java.util.*
• import javafx.*
• extends Application -- JavaFX Application
• implements Initializable -- automatic injection of Locale 
• main method
• @FXML - annotation
• @override start method
• css/buttons.css

Note: 

• @Overrite initialize method
• Currency.getInstance(bundle.getLocale());
• NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(bundle.getLocale());

Note:

• FXMLLoader fxmlLoader
• ResourceBundle.getBundle("bundles.Language", locale, new UTF8Control());
• fxmlLoader.setResources(languageBundle);
• getResource("views/TranslatedPhrasesPane.fxml");
• Pane pane = (BorderPane) fxmlLoader.load(url.openStream()); stage.getScene().getRoot()).getChildren().get(1); LanguageButtonEvent implements EventHandler
• @Override handle method
• LocaleBuilder.byLanguageCode(button.getId());
