Description Masaki Katakai 2010-04-26 06:31:27 UTC
Even if installer is built on localized NetBeans (e.g. NetBeans 6.9 beta are localized by default into
ja, zh_CN and pt_BR), the installer is not localized - no message files will be into the installer.

1. Start NetBeans 6.9 Beta in ja locale
2. Createa a NetBeans Platform application project
3. Build installer
4. Start it
    -> English UI
5. Start installed application
    -> English UI

If installer is built in localized NetBeans, I think users want to get the localized installer.
If there is a reasonable solution/workaround, let's provide it. Any idea?

Btw, the issue in step 5. is bug 133901. Currently localized jar files will not be into
JNLP/Zip distribution.

I confirm it's still reproducible in NetBeans 7.3 daily builds.
