LocaleConfig

open class LocaleConfig : Parcelable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.app.LocaleConfig

The LocaleConfig of an application. There are two sources. One is from an XML resource file with an <locale-config> element and referenced in the manifest via android:localeConfig on <application>. The other is that the application dynamically provides an override version which is persisted in LocaleManager#setOverrideLocaleConfig(LocaleConfig).

For more information about the LocaleConfig from an XML resource file, see the section on per-app language preferences.

Public constructors

LocaleConfig

Added in API level 33
LocaleConfig(context: Context)

Returns an override LocaleConfig if it has been set via LocaleManager#setOverrideLocaleConfig(LocaleConfig). Otherwise, returns the LocaleConfig from the application resources.

Parameters
context Context: the context of the application. This value cannot be null.

LocaleConfig

Added in API level 34
LocaleConfig(locales: LocaleList)

Return the LocaleConfig with any sequence of locales combined into a LocaleList.

Note: Applications seeking to create an override LocaleConfig via LocaleManager#setOverrideLocaleConfig(LocaleConfig) should use this constructor to first create the LocaleConfig they intend the system to see as the override.

Note: The creation of this LocaleConfig does not automatically mean it will become the override config for an application. Any LocaleConfig desired to be the override must be passed into the LocaleManager#setOverrideLocaleConfig(LocaleConfig), otherwise it will not persist or affect the system's understanding of app-supported resources.

Parameters
locales LocaleList: the desired locales for a specified application This value cannot be null.

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 34
open fun describeContents(): Int
Return
Int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

fromContextIgnoringOverride

Added in API level 34
open static fun fromContextIgnoringOverride(context: Context): LocaleConfig

Returns a LocaleConfig from the application resources regardless of whether any LocaleConfig is overridden via LocaleManager#setOverrideLocaleConfig(LocaleConfig).

Parameters
context Context: the context of the application. This value cannot be null.
Return
LocaleConfig This value cannot be null.

getDefaultLocale

Added in API level 35
open fun getDefaultLocale(): Locale?

Returns the locale the strings in values/strings.xml (the default strings in the directory with no locale qualifier) are in if specified, otherwise null

Return
Locale? The default Locale or null

getStatus

Added in API level 33
open fun getStatus(): Int

Get the status of reading the resource file where the LocaleConfig was stored.

Distinguish "the application didn't provide the resource file" from "the application provided malformed input" if getSupportedLocales() returns null.

Return
Int STATUS_SUCCESS if the LocaleConfig structure existed in an XML file was successfully read, or STATUS_NOT_SPECIFIED if no android:localeConfig tag on pointing to an XML file that stores the LocaleConfig, or STATUS_PARSING_FAILED if the application provided malformed input for the LocaleConfig structure. Value is android.app.LocaleConfig#STATUS_SUCCESS, android.app.LocaleConfig#STATUS_NOT_SPECIFIED, or android.app.LocaleConfig#STATUS_PARSING_FAILED

getSupportedLocales

Added in API level 33
open fun getSupportedLocales(): LocaleList?

Returns the locales supported by the specified application.

Note: The locale format should follow the IETF BCP47 regular expression

Return
LocaleList? the LocaleList This value may be null.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 34
open fun writeToParcel(
    dest: Parcel, 
    flags: Int
): Unit

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Parameters
dest Parcel: This value cannot be null.
flags Int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE. Value is either 0 or a combination of android.os.Parcelable#PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES
