I want to have a configurable language settings in my app.

So, in onCreate of my activity, I call Resources.updateConfiguration
with the new locale.

However, after onCreate (at some time, I can't find it when), the
locale is set back to the default locale.

On the code example below, the strings shown in the main layout (as
inflated by setContentView) shows the
"in" language version, BUT when I press the menu button, on which
onCreateMenu is called, the strings is
taken from the "en" (default) locale.

The log shows this:
 18337                   oncreate  D  { scale=1.0 imsi=525/1 loc=in
touch=3 keys=1/1/2 nav=3/1 orien=1 layout=34 uiMode=17 seq=143}
 30430        ActivityManager  I  Displayed activity
yuku.coba.locale/.CobaLocaleActivity: 266 ms (total 266 ms)
 18337        KeyCharacterMap  W  No keyboard for id 65540
 18337        KeyCharacterMap  W  Using default keymap: /system/usr/
keychars/qwerty.kcm.bin
 18337                   onmenu  D  { scale=1.0 imsi=525/1 loc=en_GB
touch=3 keys=1/1/2 nav=3/1 orien=1 layout=34 uiMode=17 seq=143}

Between "oncreate" and "onmenu", the locale magically changes.


Please help, I have been tinkering with this with no luck.

Thanks,
Yuku

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        Configuration c = new Configuration();
        c.locale = new Locale("in");
        getResources().updateConfiguration(c, null);

        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Log.d("oncreate", getResources().getConfiguration().toString());
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        Log.d("onmenu", getResources().getConfiguration().toString());
        new MenuInflater(this).inflate(R.menu.utama, menu);

        return true;
    }
