Question

In my application, there are inputs like length, weight etc. Different countries follow different measurement guidelines, like in US its miles, gallons and UK is km, litres. So does android Locale support such conversions on locale changes or do we have to code it explicitly.

Answer 1

you could do something like this :

 if (locale.getCountry().equals("US")){
 // Code to compute weight based on USA format
 }

 else {
 // Code to compute weight based on metric system
 }

Other than US , Burma and Liberia have non-metric format
