attribute/resource method in locale kit catalogs
* Only load the embedded catalog if nothing else was found, so it can easily
be overridden
* Change the resource type to 'CADA' (CAtalog DAta) for embedded catalogs, and
use a hash of the language code as the resource ID. This allows multiple
languages to be stored in the same file and does not interfere with the user
storing his own BMessages as resources.

Instead of computing the mime signature and giving this to the catalog system,
give an entry_ref instead. The default catalog add-on can thus look at the
right place when searching local catalogs (embedded as resources, or stored
as files next to the executable.
* This allows different versions of the same app to each have their own
catalog set,
* And also make the embedded/local catalog searching work for add-ons and
libs, instead it only worked for apps because of a getAppInfo call.
Fix cpufrequency to make use of it properly (that wouldhave worked without the
change, but nowit's mandatory, since loading a catlog by mimesignature is not
possible anymore).
Should fix#8037.

* support all weekdays as start of week, not only Sunday and Monday
(at least Saturday is used for real, too)
* introduce BWeekday as enumeration of weekdays (currently in Locale.h,
may be moved somewhere else later)
* change CalendarView to use BDate as its model, not individual values
for day, month and year, such that no more date computation is done
in CalendarView itself
* some more style cleanups in CalendarView along the way
* add monthwise paging to CalendarView
* adjusted Deskbar and Time preflet accordingly

for message formatting
* adjust LocaleKit to use namespace 'icu', as ICU has been configured to no longer
use a version specific namespace
* adjust LocaleKit to general API changes in ICU 4.8
Note: all software using ICU (like WebPositive) needs to be rebuilt!
Note: the ICU package for PPC needs to be updated before it can be used!

former just calls the latter. Getting the flag for a language is pretty
simplistic for now, but it won't return the wrong flag, just only a few known
ones (should be enough for ReadOnlyBootPrompt, at least).
* Ordered methods in declaration order.

* Disallow renaming of entries with localized names for now - this is meant to be temporary - and so far only in Tracker's Info window. Renames do not result in a change, visually, as the localized name hides the real name, and results in a bad user experience. One could possibly allow renames of the localized name, writing it back to the catalog. I've experimented with using BCatalogAddOn::SetString() but haven't been able to make it stick yet.
* Disallow renaming Trash in Tracker's Info window via Command-E.
* Adjust the argument order of BLocaleRoster::GetLocalizedFileName().
* Add a BLocaleRoster::GetLocalizedFileName() variant to look up another app's name given its signature and unlocalized, canonical name.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@41126 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* extracted new class BFormattingConventions from BCountry, which
manages the formatting conventions from a given locale and
allows to get/set the four different date/time formats supported
by ICU-locales as well as number and monetary formats
* overhauled the Locale preflet:
+ drop editing features for all formats, since I don't think
they do not make much sense to have in a prefs GUI - being
able to select from the existing locales should be good
enough. Please note that you can still change the formats
programmatically in an application.
+ renamed the 'Countries' tab to 'Formatting'
+ the locale formatting conventions list in the 'Formatting'
tab is now hierarchical for easier access (less scrolling)
+ fixed functionality of 'Revert' and 'Defaults' buttons
+ added support for using the month/day-names of your preferred
language during date formatting
* adjusted BLocale to ask BFormattingConventions for the current
formats when formatting dates and times and to offer 4
different format styles (full, long, medium and short).
* adjust all classes formatting dates/times to pick the
appropriate format style
* BLocaleRoster no longer directly archives/unarchives the
individual formatting conventions but delegates that to
BFormattingConventions

* BLocale now keeps language and country completely separate and
mixes the formatting conventions into the current language's locale
when formatting dates and times (needs to be done for number- and
currency-formatting, too, since the digits may not be in the
preferred language)
* optimized fetching of the flag icons such that they are all loaded
in one go (by the locale roster) - this alone speeds up the Locale
preflet considerably
* worked on fixing the language confusion in the Locale preflet
* fixed a couple of bugs in the Locale preflet that would lead to
illegal characters being displayed in the date-subpart menus
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@39013 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
in BLocale (which is accessible via be_locale)
* adjusted all users accordingly
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38459 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
private accessor classes
* adjust style in BTimeZone::Private implementation to match other classes
of this kind
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38449 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
values
* added locking to BLocale (needed since the data of the global object may
change any time)
* BLocale no longer passes out pointers to internal objects, it fill objects
passed in by the client instead (just like be_locale_roster does)
* dropped default language as member from RosterData, it is no part of the
default locale
* fleshed out implementation of TimeUnitFormat and DurationFormat, both
of which can now be given a BLocale in order to set the strings being used
during formatting
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38428 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
around BLocaleRoster::GetAvailableTimeZonesForCountry()
* minor cleanup
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38412 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
since we'd like to be able to get the timezones of the global (i.e. empty)
country, too.

(not currently used anywhere, but should be part of the BTimeZone interface)
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38333 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* use upon-demand initialization in BTimeZone to avoid unnecessary work
* renamed BTimeZone::Code() to BTimeZone::ID() and adjusted all callers
* avoid using BCountry in the Time preflet for the time being, this means
the icon-flags are gone for now (but they could be re-added if the demand
is pressing ;-)
* group the timezones by regions and then by country instead
The performance improvement is considerable and I personally think the new grouping is an improvement, too. Please share your thoughts!
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38322 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* added TODOs about the need to get rid of some of the date/time-formatting
shortcut methods
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38146 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Use the function to localize the date/time in tracker.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37949 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Remove the be_locale global object and go through the be_locale_roster instead
* Rework the storage of data for the be_locale_roster, since BLocale already holds a BCountry and a BLanguage.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37907 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* refactored private/mutable stuff out of LocaleRoster into MutableLocaleRoster
* moved management of Locale/Time settings file and broadcasting of any changes
out of preflets and into MutableLocaleRoster
* added proper sorting to the listviews of the Locale preflet
* the Time preflet no longer overlaps long timezone names into the actual time
* several fixes with respect to leaking ICU objects, esp. in BCountry
* the locale roster no longer passes out references to its own BCountry object,
but uses copies, instead - this makes locking superfluous, as the clients'
BCountry objects can no longer be changed by the setting a new default
country in the locale roster
* removed pretty useless POSIX-style symbol fetching from BCountry - if we
need that at all, it should live in the dedicated formatter classes
* adjusted readonlybootprompt, dstcheck and Deskbar to the changed Locale API
* refactored existing Time-formatter into TimeUnitFormat and DurationFormat
(the latter of which is now used by AboutSystem)
* added stubs for Date, DateTime and Time formatters
* lots of coding style fixes throughout the Locale Kit and the Locale and Time
preflets
This will probably break most external apps making use of the Locale Kit - it
does break WebPositive.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37831 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* basically rewrote TimeZone to sport a nicer to use interface
* adjusted all users of TimeZone accordingly
* changed TZDisplay to show the Date next to the label, in
order to avoid that long timezone names draw all over it
* the timezone listview is now properly sorted according
to the current language (using BCollator)
* fixed a couple of bugs (overflows, etc.) that caused
incorrect GMT offsets to be used during computations
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37813 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fix archiving/unarchiving to provide at least a valid object. However, ICU archiving system doesn't look like it's working well.

warnings and incorporate some of the ICU-patches we had in our repo before
we upgraded to 4.4.1
* fixed remaining warnings when building locale kit
* activated EnableWerror for locale kit
* added 'Unicode' license, which is the second license in use by ICU
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37763 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Not completely working yet, hte POSIX API isn't very happy about ICU timezone names.
