如何从插件获取Eclipse的当前语言环境？

Question

The locale of Eclipse can be set at start up via eclipse.ini adding this line:

-Duser.language=<locale>

But how can I get the locale in an Eclipse RCP application (plugin)?

Answer 1

The same way as in every java application:

Locale.getDefault();

Have a look at "Using a Default Locale":

There is also the LocaleProvider service, depending on your needs:

Answer 2

To load the "-Duser.name=xxx" in a eclipse.ini file within a plugin product. Just use System.getProperty("user.name") . Hope this may help you.
