mz4wheeler commented on OFBIZ-4412:
-----------------------------------
Yes, it should work (try it). You would have to make sure that you have all of
the current exchange rates entered in the accounting module for all the various
currencies.
mount-point="/au"
<init-param name="Locale" value="en_AU"/>
<init-param name="Currency" value="AUD"/>
I noticed that when I briefly tested the currency, the shopping cart seems to
correctly exchange currencies (from the foreign exchange rate table) but the
products only display the price correctly if the product has a price entered in
the currency.

> Affects Versions: Release Branch 10.04, Release Branch 11.04, SVN trunk
> Environment: Not specific
> Reporter: mz4wheeler

> Using the specified patch, it is now possible to set a users initial Locale
> (and even currency) based on the webapp mount point. This works with a
> single store, and does not require the use virtual hosts. This is especially
> useful when setting up sitemap.xml, which allows crawlers (like google) to
> correctly locate and traverse products and services in multiple languages.
> Here is an example where "ecomclone" has been modified to Locale=fr with a
> mount point of "/fr".
> specialpurpose/ecommerce/ofbiz-component.xml:
> <!-- <init-param name="Currency" value="EUR"/> -->
> <webapp name="ecommerce"
> title="eCommerce"
> server="default-server"
> location="webapp/ecommerce"
> mount-point="/ecommerce"
> app-bar-display="false">
> </webapp>
> <webapp name="ecomclone"
> title="eCommerce Clone"
> server="default-server"
> location="webapp/ecomclone"
> mount-point="/fr" <------- SPECIFY MOUNT
> app-bar-display="false">
> <init-param name="Locale" value="fr"/> <------- SPECIFY LOCALE
> </webapp>
> The below sitemap.xml would allow products with the "/fr" path to be indexed
> in french.
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9";>
> <url><loc>http://ofbizsite.com/ecommerce/products/10002/p_1001TANGRAMPUZ</loc></url>
> <url><loc>http://ofbizsite.com/fr/products/10002/p_1001TANGRAMPUZ</loc></url>
> </urlset>
> The patch:
> The attached patch modifies setDefaultStoreSettings in ProductEvents.java,
> which is called once during the initial session creation.
> After a user enters the URL, they are still free to modify the language, as
> long as the page supports it (like the default demo store). The patch also
> allows the Currency to be forced as well, and it does appear to work, but
> should be more throughly tested.
> Although this patch bypasses the requirement for multiple stores, there may
> be issues with other aspects of the store, like emails. However, it is no
> different than a user who enters your English-based ecommerce store, selects
> "french", and attempts a checkout.
