I do not use SetLanguage. Should I? In my Windows installation the active system locale is Finnish. Or should I separately define locale for Upp somehow?

Yes, you should. I do sth like this:

SetLanguage(LNGC_('P','L','P','L', CHARSET_UTF8));

Of course Finnish locales must be present in Upp core lib (this is the place where format of date for given country is set)

As for <MM> format, I do not have a strong opinion about this, but for me a number would be enough. It may be easier for people who do not speak english natively, but still need to access this widget on a system with English interface language.

Actually, I used already the SwapYearMonth..

Thanks,

Tom

Finish is not supported yet. Awaits somebody to do translations.. Smile

(http://www.ultimatepp.org/srcdoc$Core$i18n$en-us.html, also search the forum for details).

You can also set the date formatting regardless of current language settings using

void SetDateFormat(const char *fmt);

Yep!

I sort of figured it out that some translations are needed. I ended up updating Lang.cpp and core.t with Finnish translations and language info.

Please, evaluate them and include to uppsrc if appropriate. Please let me know if updates/fixes or more things need to be done on this subject.

BTW: SetLanguage(::GetSystemLNG()) helps quite a bit, as I later also discovered in the documentation you linked to.
