Java croatian locale

Question

Here is the list of supported locales for Java.

How do I set them?

The line

Locale.setDefault(Locale.CROATIAN);

doesn't work, although croatian it's listed as supported. Is there another aproach or way to use it, or do I have to translate manually?

Could you give more details on why the 'line' does not work? — bbaja42, Sep 20 '12 at 22:32
Because CROATIAN does not exist as a constant, there is only limited number of languages... Yet again, it is said croatian IS supported (in the link on the top), so there must be another way... — Ivan Karlovic, Sep 20 '12 at 22:33

try: Locale.setDefault(new Locale("hr", "HR"));

It is still up to you to support that locale in your application

have a look at the oracle i18n docs here.

But it is said it's already supported... It is also returned from `getAvailableLocales()`: both `hr` and `hr_HR` – Ivan Karlovic Sep 20 '12 at 22:42
That means your Java runtime has 'hr_HR' installed. The code above represents the croatian locale – Jonas Adler Sep 20 '12 at 22:48
