Hi Addison,
Thanks for the information.
I tried to look on your website to get more info. on Locale.
Is it a translator that you are developing ?
I looked under www.javasoft.com , under tutorial link and could not find any
Unicode tutorial. Can you please guide me through a specific URL on
javasoft where
i can find the example classes templates on Unicode ? That will really help
in
coding my efforts. thanks a lot.
Thanks and regards,
Vinit Bhatt

This demo shows many of the basic classes related to the Locale object in
use. I'm adding collation, normalization, the BreakIterator, and other
features sometime this week.
Before you start with books, check out the Javasoft website. They have a
comprehensive Internationalization tutorial and several articles on the
basic classes you'll need to understand.
Many books on Java have a chapter on internationalization, which is where
you'll mostly find reference to such matters as Unicode. There are also a
couple of books coming out shortly on the topic.
