Specifying Locales

Locale settings are a combination of language and date/time display formats as supported by the Java 2 platform. FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications ships with the en_US locale, which enables FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications to display dates and times as is customary in the United States.

If you add additional locales, user accounts can be associated with a locale in order to customize the display of dates and times.

For example, if you add the Great Britain locale (en_GB), the date November 20, 2010 appears as:

11/20/2010 in the en_US locale
20/11/2010 in the en_GB locale

See the section Adding Locales for more information.
