Description Janet Geddes 2002-09-09 12:40:56 UTC 
The locale tag doc indicates that it returns a Locale object 
(java.util.Locale, i presumed), but the LocaleEI class actually specifies 
java.lang.String as the return type for the id.  I am using the localeRef 
attribute to pull the java.util.Locale object from the session, and need for the 
tag to return the object, not the string...

I have attached a patch above which fixes this bug.
Comment 3 Jon Evans 2002-12-09 15:36:12 UTC 
The patch previously attached still applies cleanly to the current CVS, IMHO it
should be applied, it is clearly the correct fix.
Comment 4 Glenn Nielsen 2002-12-17 04:00:31 UTC 
Makes sense. Patch applied.  Thanks.
