Getting Best Matched Language Tag Using Lookup on English, Japan Locales Example

The following example shows the usage of Java Locale lookup(List<Locale.LanguageRange>, Collection<Locale>) method. We're creating a string of comma separated locales and using that string, we've created a locale preference list. Now a list of locale is created and few locales are added. Using lookup() method, locales are searched and result is printed.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Locale;

public class LocaleDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      String tags = Locale.ENGLISH.toLanguageTag() 
         + ","
         + Locale.FRENCH.toLanguageTag();

      List<Locale.LanguageRange> priorityList = Locale.LanguageRange.parse(tags);
      List<Locale> localeList = new ArrayList<>();
      localeList.add(Locale.ENGLISH);
      localeList.add(Locale.JAPAN);

      Locale filteredTag = Locale.lookup(priorityList, localeList);

      System.out.println(filteredTag);
   }
}
Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

Getting Best Matched Language Tag Using Lookup on English, Canada, French Locales Example

The following example shows the usage of Java Locale lookup(List<Locale.LanguageRange>, Collection<Locale>) method. We're creating a different string of comma separated locales and using that string, we've created a locale preference list. Now a list of locale is created and few locales are added. Using lookup() method, locales are searched and result is printed.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Locale;

public class LocaleDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      String tags = Locale.ENGLISH.toLanguageTag() 
         + ","
         + Locale.FRENCH.toLanguageTag();

      List<Locale.LanguageRange> priorityList = Locale.LanguageRange.parse(tags);
      List<Locale> localeList = new ArrayList<>();
      localeList.add(Locale.ENGLISH);
      localeList.add(Locale.CANADA);
      localeList.add(Locale.FRENCH);

      Locale filteredTag = Locale.lookup(priorityList, localeList);

      System.out.println(filteredTag);
