[jira] [Commented] (LANG-915) Wrong locale handling in LocaleUtils.toLocale()

["David Buhler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-915?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14941330#comment-14941330 ] 

David Buhler commented on LANG-915:
-----------------------------------

I believe this ticket should be reconsidered for reopening. The current implementation that was introduced here does not support language code sub tags, instead only allowing three parameters.

You can see the specification for sub tags [here|https://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47#section-4]. Oracle documentation for sub tag extensions can be found [here|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/locale/extensions.html].

> The static method LocaleUtils.toLocale() fails, at least, to parse 3-char locale strings, which are completelly valid BCP47 locales.
