LocaleThe Locale object provides locale specific properties and formatted data. More... Properties
Methods
Detailed DescriptionThe Locale object may only be created via the Qt.locale() function. It cannot be created directly. The Qt.locale() function returns a JS Locale object representing the locale with the specified name, which has the format "language[_territory][.codeset][@modifier]" or "C". Locale supports the concept of a default locale, which is determined from the system's locale settings at application startup. If no parameter is passed to Qt.locale() the default locale object is returned. The Locale object provides a number of functions and properties providing data for the specified locale. The Locale object may also be passed to the Date and Number toLocaleString() and fromLocaleString() methods in order to convert to/from strings using the specified locale. This example shows the current date formatted for the German locale: import QtQuick 2.0 Text { text: "The date is: " + Date().toLocaleString(Qt.locale("de_DE")) } The following example displays the specified number in the correct format for the default locale: import QtQuick 2.0 Text { text: "The value is: " + Number(23443.34).toLocaleString(Qt.locale()) } QtQuick Locale's data is based on Common Locale Data Repository v1.8.1.

Property DocumentationThe localized name of the "AM" suffix for times specified using the conventions of the 12-hour clock. Holds the decimal point character of this locale. Holds the exponential character of this locale. Holds the first day of the week according to the current locale.
Note: that these values match the JS Date API which is different from the Qt C++ API where Qt::Sunday = 7. Holds the group separator character of this locale. This property defines which units are used for measurement.
Holds the language and country of this locale as a string of the form "language_country", where language is a lowercase, two-letter ISO 639 language code, and country is an uppercase, two- or three-letter ISO 3166 country code. Holds a native name of the country for the locale. For example "España" for Spanish/Spain locale. See also nativeLanguageName. Holds a native name of the language for the locale. For example "Schwiizertüütsch" for Swiss-German locale. See also nativeCountryName. Holds the negative sign character of this locale. Holds the percent character of this locale. The localized name of the "PM" suffix for times specified using the conventions of the 12-hour clock. Holds the positive sign character of this locale. Holds the text direction of the language:
Returns an ordered list of locale names for translation purposes in preference order. The return value represents locale names that the user expects to see the UI translation in. The first item in the list is the most preferred one. Holds an array of days that are considered week days according to the current locale, where Sunday is 0 and Saturday is 6. See also firstDayOfWeek. Holds Returns the zero digit character of this locale. Method DocumentationReturns the currency symbol for the specified format:
See also Number::toLocaleCurrencyString(). Returns the date format used for the current locale. type specifies the FormatType to return. See also Date. Returns the date time format used for the current locale. type specifies the FormatType to return. See also Date. Returns the localized name of the day (where 0 represents Sunday, 1 represents Monday and so on), in the optional FormatType specified by type. See also monthName() and standaloneDayName(). Returns the localized name of month (0-11), in the optional FortmatType specified by type. Note: the QLocale C++ API expects a range of (1-12), however Locale.monthName() expects 0-11 as per the JS Date object. See also dayName() and standaloneMonthName(). Returns the localized name of the day (where 0 represents Sunday, 1 represents Monday and so on) that is used as a standalone text, in the FormatType specified by type. If the locale information does not specify the standalone day name then return value is the same as in dayName(). See also dayName() and standaloneMonthName(). Returns the localized name of month (0-11) that is used as a standalone text, in the optional FormatType specified by type. If the locale information doesn't specify the standalone month name then return value is the same as in monthName(). Note: the QLocale C++ API expects a range of (1-12), however Locale.standaloneMonthName() expects 0-11 as per the JS Date object. See also monthName() and standaloneDayName(). Returns the time format used for the current locale. type specifies the FormatType to return. See also Date. |
