derby.ui.locale property
Function
Set this property to a supported locale name when using one of the Derby tools, if you
want another locale than the system default locale. The locale determines the localized
display format for numbers, dates, times and timestamps, as well as the language of
the messages from the Derby tools. Note that some pages in the Derby documentation
guides refer to a "locale" as a "territory".
Syntax
derby.ui.locale=derbyval
