Can locale be system dependent? about itom HOT 5 CLOSED

Dear Thomas,
I guess that your observation was due to a bug in the code. I made a commit (see above), that possibly fixes this bug. Please check it. If fixed, then please close this issue.

The problem was as follows:

1. If no entry was found in itom.ini, itom used the current standard from the operating system for numbers and date
2. If somebody opens the language property page, "operating system" has been chosen per default, however when Apply was clicked, "C-style" was written to the setting file (which is usually interpreted as US-style. This was an error. Now: operating system is written to the setting file, which comes to the same result than point 1.

Hello Marc,

thank you for the fast fix. I can confirm that it works as expected now.

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear on 2. I meant if it would be possible, to also make the language for text and not only the number style operating system dependent.

Ah OK, now I understood point 2. Yes, we could add an automatic language option, such that the language will be chosen from the operating system. I just have to guess about a fallback if the language is not available. Probably the standard language English.
I think that I will add this possibility soon.

Hi Thomas, I added an operating-system dependent choice of the language in the pull request #287 .

Could you check this?
