I think the proper way to do it is the following: NumberFormat percentFormat = NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(); percentFormat.setMaximumFractionDigits(1); String result = percentFormat.format(0.125); It also takes internalization into account. For example on my machine with hungarian locale I got “12,5%” as expected. Initializing percentFormat as NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(Locale.US) gives “12.5%” of course.
Then I found a post that warned about using the App_GlobalResouces and App_LocalResources. (Link) I found that post extremely useful. The method explained there is very clean. Here is a snippet of my newly created index view using that method: @using Resources.Index @{ ViewBag.Title = “Index”; } <h1>@Index.Title</h1> I don’t think there is a definitive … Read more
There are several systems for locale identifiers. Many of them are similar at the first glance, but not when you go deeper: Some examples (Serbian-Serbia with Latin Script, Japanese-Japan with radical sorting): UTS-35, ICU, Mac OS X, Flash: sr-Latn-RS, ja-JP@collation=radical Newer UTS-35, BCP 47 extension U: sr-Latn-RS, ja-JP-u-co-unihan Win 2000, XP: 0x81a, 0x10411 Vista, Win … Read more
This is what I ended up going with, I didn’t see the value in adding a custom attribute class to hold a resource key and then looking up into the resource files – why not just use the enums typename + value as a resource key? using System; using System.Resources; using System.Reflection; public class MyClass … Read more

Local resources must be named in format [.language / language and culture].resx. Ex: Default.aspx.resx- Base resource file. This is the default, or fallback, … Read more
You should avoid App_GlobalResources and App_LocalResources. Like Craig mentioned, there are problems with App_GlobalResources/App_LocalResources because you can’t access them outside of the ASP.NET runtime. A good example of how this would be problematic is when you’re unit testing your app. K. Scott Allen blogged about this a while ago. He does a good job of … Read more

Make use of java.text.Normalizer and a shot of regex to get rid of the diacritics. public static String removeDiacriticalMarks(String string) { return Normalizer.normalize(string, Form.NFD) .replaceAll(“\\p{InCombiningDiacriticalMarks}+”, “”); } Which you can use as follows: String value = “Joáo”; String comparisonMaterial = removeDiacriticalMarks(value); // Joao
I’m providing an answer, even though @hedgie mostly answered their own question. I’ll add a bit of context and description of what’s happening. This answer is still applicable as of Django 3.0. Just as you can override a Django-provided admin template by duplicating the template’s name and directory structure within our own project, you can … Read more
