language box missing some languages
Hi,
I have seen a few unanswered threads on this subject, I was hoping someone might know the answer...
What does it take to have an installer run in Japanese on an English OS?
I'm using IA 8.0 Enterprise. When I create an installer with Eng+Jpn languages, for example, and then run the installer on Windows, I can only see the English option in the language panel that appears as the installer starts.
However, if I run the same installer on a Japanese OS, I see both languages in the language panel and I can select either one to have the installer run in the correct language.
I have a multi language JDK installed.
The "asian languages" option is checked in Windows' Regional Settings in Control Panel, just in case.
I have added a Japanese input handler in Windows' Regional Settings in Control Panel, just in case.
I have an Arial Unicode TTF font installed, and other apps like Word, Internet Explorer and simple Java Swing apps are all able to display Japanese content.
I tried selecting all languages in the installer. When I run it like this on my English OS, I see about a third of all the languages I selected. Seems like it only shows the list of latin-based languages or something like that.
anyone has an idea how to have an installer run in Japanese on an English OS???
thanks.

As far as I know, the locale detection works in IA only if the OS is Japanese for instance (so you won't be able to install Japanes on English, for instance).

In my case, the OS is japanese. IA is not showing the language dropdown, instead directly starting in English.

Well, the only think I might suggest would be to try a more recent IA version to see if the issue is reproduced... Also, starting with IA 2009 SP1 there is a Japanese localized version of IA...
