What issues are people dealing with when trying to Internationalize their software? This thread is meant to be a discussion about current issues people are facing with Internationalization and how they are going about solving those issues. (And to make people think about the topic if they have not done this before).

Sorting mechanisms are difficult for me. Constructing the code so that it will sort Chinese characters, English and other languages is tough.

Thanks,
Jarrett

Hi all,

Is it that no one knows about internationalization of software or is it that no one is interested in it?

Thanks,
Jarrett

Topics in these forums are typically specific questions or problems. You just ask for general thoughts on a topic ("This thread is meant to be..."). That is not how it works around here.

The one technical problem you mentioned, sorting, is no problem when you use the correct java.text.Collator.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
