How to set the locale using the java variable in

Question

I have the language code in java variable. I want to set that code into setLocale value like

<%

String lang="en";

%>
<fmt:setLocale value="${lang}" scope="session"/>

But this was not working correctly. But when i set like

<fmt:setLocale value="en" scope="session"/> ,it was working perfectly. The language may be es,de... So i want to set the value like <fmt:setLocale value="${lang}" scope="session"/>.

Is any solutions? Please help me.

Have you tried using the JSTL tag for `` to set the `lang` variable instead? — Daniel Kaplan, Apr 18 '13 at 06:05

As mentioned in comment use set tag

 <c:set var="language" value="${not empty param.language ?
          param.language : not empty language  ? language :
                        pageContext.request.locale}" scope="session" />
                                           <fmt:setLocale value="${language}" />

This was not change the language for the entire session. Some pages only get change. – Bala Apr 18 '13 at 06:26
I have 18 jsp pages.I have included the setLocale code in all tha pages. When i use like value="en" , it works fine. But i cant set the value dynamically. – Bala Apr 18 '13 at 06:45
Are you setting the value value="${not empty param.language ? param.language : not empty language ? language : pageContext.request.locale}. – Suresh Atta Apr 18 '13 at 06:47

Try it this way:

<fmt:setLocale value="<%=lang%>" scope="session"/>
