Creating a New Locale

Create a new locale with resource keys and values extracted from localizable strings in the current device application file.

When you create a new locale, keep in mind:

When you specify a country for the language, the basic language locale must also be available. For example, if you create a locale and specify English as the language, then there must also be a locale for English (the basic language).
If you create a locale that specifies language, country, and variant, the locale for the basic language and the locale for the basic language and the country must be available. For example, if you create a locale and specify English as the language, United States as the country, and WIN as the variant, then English (United States) and English locales must also be available.

In the New Locale wizard:

Option	Description
Language	Select the language.
Country	Select the country.
Variant	Enter the variant, which is the vendor or browser-specific code. For example, enter "WIN" for Windows, "MAC" for Macintosh and "POSIX" for POSIX. If there are two variants, separate them with an underscore, and put the most important one first. For example, a Traditional Spanish collation might construct a locale with parameters for language, country, and variant as: "es", "ES", "Traditional_WIN".
Overwrite existing file	Overwrite an existing localization file.
Automatically create default locale	Automatically create the default locale properties file. For example, if you specify the language as "English" and the country as the "United States" for a device application called `test`, then both test_en_uS.properties and test.properties files are created.

Click Finish.
The properties file is created in the same directory as the device application file.
