Configuring a CookieLocaleResolver

We use a CookieLocaleResolver in the following example:

    <bean id="localeResolver"      class="org.springframework.web.servlet.     i18n.CookieLocaleResolver">        <property name="defaultLocale" value="en" />        <property name="cookieName" value="userLocaleCookie"/>        <property name="cookieMaxAge" value="7200"/>     </bean>

Important things to note are as follows:

• <property name="cookieName" value="userLocaleCookie"/>: The name of the cookie stored in the browser will be userLocaleCookie.
• <property name="cookieMaxAge" value="7200"/>: The lifetime of the cookie is 2 hours (7200 seconds).
