- Database error messages are in the language of the locale, if support
is explicitly provided for that locale with a special library.
For example, explicitly supports Spanish-language
error messages. If a database's locale is set to one of the Spanish-language
locales, returns
error messages in the Spanish language.
- The tools. In
the case of the tools, locale support includes locale-specific interface and
error messages and localized data display.
For more information about
localization of the tools,
see the .
Localized messages require special libraries.
The locale of the error messages and of the tools is not determined by
the database's localle set by the locale=ll_CC attribute when the database
is created but instead by the default system locale. This means that it is
possible to create a database with a non-default locale. In such a case, error
messages would not be returned in the language of the database's locale but
in the language of the default locale instead.
You can override the default locale for ij with a property on the JVM.
