> I noticed the strong support for different locales by struts, which I
> like very much. There is however one thing I am missing. Imagine that my
> preferred language as set in the "Accept-language" setting of my browser
> (and HTTP header in requests) is: "fr,de" (French and German
> respectively). If I go to a Struts site that supports only English and
> German (en,de), there is no match at all, no matter that I accept
> German. Reason is the following lines in RequestUtils.java:
> if (userLocale == null) {
> // Returns Locale based on Accept-Language header or the
> server default
> userLocale = request.getLocale();
> }
> So, only the (first) preferred language is considered, and any
> successive languages are discarded. According to the HTTP specs, it can
> be a list of languages ("nl,en;q=0.8,de;q=0.5,..."). This is why the
> HttpServletRequest also has a method getLocales() which returns an
> Enumeration. I would like it if Struts would try to match any of the
> successive languages for which .properties files exist if the first
> isn't matched. I realize that it may cause a performance penalty, so
> maybe it can be made a configuration option
> (match-second-languages=true/false or something).
> I hope you will consider to add this feature.
