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!

* 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

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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38380 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.

remove duplicatesfromthe list generated by ICU.
* BTimeZone : remove Code, rename Name to GetName. The class is likely to change again for further optimization.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37719 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
so, loading the locale preflet is also faster and use less memory.

* BCountry can list the timezones applicable for the country
* BCountry can give its name (for example France), or LocaleName (french (France)). The second one will later be moved to BLocale class along with
most of the locale settings ; but this needs a bit of refactoring.
* The Locale preflet now uses LocaleName instead of Name, since it deals with locales. The time preflet will want only country names, without te
language information, for example.

* The locale roster uses them instead of messing with pointers, to avoid ownership problems
* The Locale preflet works on a copy of the default country instead of altering it directly
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37649 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Use them in the time preflet to display and edit the date in a local-aware way
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37551 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Some support for languages having an order different than H:M:S:AM (like chinese). Does not seem to work too well, but I can't spot what I missed
* API to get the infos about the type of each field in a time format
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37517 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Remove 4.2 sourcecode
* ICU is now an optional package (mandatory)
* Adjust the namespaces and libraries names where needed
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37498 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Localize date in deskbar properly, and use the new API to show the calendar. The "show european date" checkbox is now gone.

Untested and not working yet since we don't provide any icon.

-MarkForTranslation was not scanned by collectcatkeys, improved the regexp to take it into account
-Some gristing was missing in jamrules, added a bit, still seem to miss some.
-Replaced $(var:B).ext with $(var:S=.ext) as it is the proper way in order not to loose grist and mess things up
-Removed icu include and replaced direct class nesting with pointer to avoid binary compatibility breakage on ICU updates.
-Fixed TimeFormatSettingsView to properly include needed icu things. Should not be there, actually. Needs cleanup.

work to do, but it's about time to give this code more exposure.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33176 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* integrating most of the locale kit into the build (and image)
* removed LocaleBuild.h and _IMPEXP_LOCALE since that does not make
sense for elf (which usually exports all symbols anyway)
* added a couple of locale kit related pseudo targets for convenience
Hey, some of that stuff already seems to work :-)
