I'm running python 2.5 on a Debian based system and I'm looking for your
advice on how to set the locale for my application. I've read through the
locale module documentation http://docs.python.org/lib/module-locale.html
and tried a couple of the examples but can't seem to get it working.
For instance, when I attempt to run the following code:
import locale
locale.setlocal e(locale.LC_ALL , 'de_DE')
I get an exception raised by the application which says:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "locale_test.py ", line 2, in <module>
locale.setlocal e(locale.LC_ALL , 'de_DE')
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 478, in setlocale
return _setlocale(cate gory, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
My questions are; what would be causing this error? Do I need any
additional
packages installed on the system for this locale support to work
properly?
Probably you don't have support for 'de_DE' locale.
Try using locale.setlocal e(locale.LC_ALL , '')
and see what you get in response.
How can I get a list of available locales?
I'd like to know how to retrieve that too...

Is there a way to tell Java what localization to use so applications and

any way to have Java always use US English rather than the default Japanese?

We have an ASP.NET page that displays a date without a format specifier (in order to determine to default locale setting) and the date is shown as mm/dd/yyyy.
We previously were able to set the locale to Australian values (incl date format of dd/mm/yyyy) using KB271587. I have recently installed the v1.1 of the .NET Framework and the format has reverted to the mm/dd/yyyy format.
How can I set the locale settings to use the Austrlian locale...

I have to generate excerpts in different human languages in a
program. In general, the language is not the locale's language, but
set at runtime. Nevertheless, GNU's gettext should be used for the
excerpts. This means that I have to wrap calls to gettext() in a
function that sets the locale temporarily.
The problem is how to do that. Let's assume I need to generate
German snippets. Then I could say

Hello,
In the init-script contained in the RPMs downloadable from the PostgreSQL
site (I checked the one for Fedora), an explicit locale is set before
running initdb. - And the explicit locale is not "C".
This means that a PostgreSQL installation will not use indexes for LIKE
queries (I just ran into this). See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html#4.8

I start a python script with subprocess from another Python script
with
python = subprocess.Popen(,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
However, this child script has sys.stdout.encoding set to None,
which means that Unicode strings cannot be printed without trouble.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
