Abstract: A method, system, program product and signal bearing medium are provided for creating a specific Java style locale source file on demand in a computer suitable for application use. In particular the method comprises receiving a request submitted for the specific Java style locale and obtaini ng a plurality of localization values related to the specific Java style locale. Next operation determines a category containing elements therein within the plurality of localization values and selecting process routines dependent upon the category and the element therein. The method continues by selectively extracting the localization values pertaining to the category by the selected routines and storing the extracted localization values into a memory of the computer. The method completes with assembling the extracted information into the Java sty le locale source file for application use. The method further comprises determining additional categories, for eac h additional category, selecting process routines dependent upon the additiona l category containing elements therein, and selectively extracting the localization values pertaining to the additional category and the elements therein by the selected process routines; and the storing of the extracted localization values into a memory of the computer.

Abstract: The invention provides for extracting language and culture information from a POSIX.TM.* conforming locale source file for the purpose of formatting sample data for country and language expert validation. The invention is performed on a computer system by obtaining a locale source file, in a preferred form, containing a plurality of elements having languag e and culture information, extracting and then using those elements and their associated values cooperatively with sample data, to generate readable text representations, thereby providi ng a country and language expert reviewer with textual data formatted according to the conventions embodied in the locale source file. The invention provides representative results without requiring compilation of a locale object, thereby increasing the efficiency of validation efforts.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for presenting information which reflects the users' c ultural preference, including language and other conventions, that can manage locale categories without requiring application programs to manage all the overhead of repetitive changes to locale category values. Users merely specify their cul tural preferences through the application programs and the operating system assign s a stack from the working memory for each specified category of cultural prefer ence, and pushes onto the stack the location in the working memory of a file for the c ategory of cultural preference specified, the file having been transferred from a local e database of files that contain code formatting according to the cultural preferences. In a second aspect of the operating system, multiple concurrent sets of cultural preferences are handled by determining whether a location in the working mem ory corresponding to the preference specified is currently in the queue, and if not, by placing a new value in the queue for each memory location corresponding to a n additional set of locale category values.

Abstract: A method for optical character recognition particularly suitable for cursive and scripted text follows the tracings of the script and encodes them as a sequence of directional vectors. Another aspect of the method adaptively preprocesses each word or sub-word of interconnected characters as a unit and the characters are accepted only when all characters in a unit have been recognized without leaving a remainder of any vectors in the unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to access to a platform independent input method edito r or IME from an underlying operating system. Keystrokes received at an operating system input may be formed into a character sequence, and an operating system-based IME service module may call the platform independent IME to convert the character sequence to a corresponding code point. The transferred code point may then be returned to an operating system outpu t.

Abstract: A method, system, program product and signal bearing medium for managing address identification information in accordance with predetermined preferences for a software application in an information handling system. There are provisions for receiving data input containing the address identification, from which is generated an XML file representation of the address identification. Mapping of the XML file representation is performed to create a sorted map according to a selected one of the predetermined preferences. Formatting the sorted map to create a tag based output representation of the address identification for the software application use is then performed to provide a representation of th e address identification in accordance with a selected predetermined preference.

Abstract: The invention relates to culturally sensitive sorting of records. The invention provides a method and a computer system for sorting a set of keyed records based on a preferred locale specification having collation information of a culture. The method is performed on a computer system operatively coupled to a computer readable memory storing the set of keyed records. The steps include reading a locale token associated with the set of records, the locale token identifying a preferred locale object having collation information, using th e preferred locale object to locate and read the collation information, creating a culturally correct collation key for each data key associated with the each record, and using the created culturally correct collation keys to sort the set of records into a culturally correct sorted order.

Abstract: The present invention provides redirection for a web page request for an old URL received at a web server. In an embodiment, a web page request from an end- user is redirected to a Common Gateway Interface ("CGI") script for handling the web page redirection. In an embodiment, the CGI script includes a routine for matching an old URL to a n ew URL provided in a lookup table. In an embodiment, each web page of an old URL has a corresponding new URL such that an end-user trying to access a web page using an old URL is always directed to a corresponding new web page, or to a relevant page if a corresponding new pag e does not exist. In another embodiment, a customized message may be associated with a match between an old URL and a new URL, and the customized message may be displayed prior to redirection.
