Class LocaleUtil

java.lang.Object

org.sakaiproject.jsf.util.LocaleUtil

public class LocaleUtil
extends Object

Instead of using standard methods of deciding which locale should be used when loading a resource, Sakai tools are requested to go through the Sakai-specific ResourceLoader class, which lets Sakai-specific settings such as site preferences be taken into account. Currently the ResourceLoader functionality is not behind an interface, and so direct references to the class will drag in dependencies on framework features. To keep the Sakai JSF tag library self-sufficient, this utility class uses JavaBean-style introspection to load and use the ResourceLoader class if it's available, or to fall back to the standard UIViewRoot "getLocale()" method. Note that we only use the "getLocale()" method in ResourceLoader. For details, see the comments to SAK-6886.
