Locale

Synopsis

Setting the locale configuration setting disables the lookup of a locale based on user preferences (passed through the Accept-Language header value). When a String value is used to set these two variables, it must be specified as a two-letter lowercase ISO-639 language code, optionally followed by a two-letter uppercase ISO-3166 country code, separated by a hyphen or an underscore character.
