HttpAcceptLanguage is a locale source class that carries the language preference of the web client

On each request, the language preferences of the web client is conveyed by Accept-Language item in the HTTP header. The language preferences can be multiple locales. For example, when the client sets the language preferences to French, English, German, and Japanese in this order, Accept-Language value would be as follows:

   Accept-Language: en;q=0.9, fr;q=1.0, de, ja

Considering the locales supported by the application, HttpAcceptLanguage object is instantiated with this value to determine the current user locale. In above example, if the supported locales are en and ja, the user locale is determined to en, since fr and de are not supported by the application and en has the largest weight.

Since:

10.1.0.2
