How to detect user language and do one thing or another?

  • 772

I just need to know if it's english go to url2 and if it's spanish url . I have some layouts with strings in Spanish and English and I know how to use them to exit depending on the user's language, but since it's a URL, I'm not able to make it go to one URL or another.

I have tried putting a string and comparing it or assigning numbers to it but nothing, I am not able. The solution would be if(es ingles) { go to url2} if not (spanish}

public class Competidores extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment {

WebView appWeb;

public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.four_tab, container, false);


    String url = " https://rudeboysapp.wordpress.com/";
    String url2 = " https://rudeboysappenglish.wordpress.com/";

  if(l7 == "es") {

        appWeb = (WebView) v.findViewById(R.id.webView);
        //Habilitamos el javaScript y el zoom
        appWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        // appWeb.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        //Cargamos el enlace definido
        appWeb.loadUrl(url);
        //Este método es para que el navegador se quede en nuestra aplicación
        appWeb.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
            @Override
            public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                return false;
            }
        });

    }else {


        appWeb = (WebView) v.findViewById(R.id.webView);
        //Habilitamos el javaScript y el zoom
        appWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        // appWeb.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        //Cargamos el enlace definido
        appWeb.loadUrl(url2);
        //Este método es para que el navegador se quede en nuestra aplicación
        appWeb.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
            @Override
            public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                return false;
            }
        });

    }




    return v;
}

    You must retrieve the system language using the Locale object and its getDefault() method:

    Locale.getDefault().toString();

    Depending on what it gives you, it will be one language or another. For example, American English is "en_US" while British English is "en_EN" and Spanish from Spain is "es_ES"... and so on. If you look closely, the first two acronyms are always the language and the next two after the "_" are the country.

    If you only care about the language regardless of the country, you have the getLanguage() method:

        String l7 = Locale.getDefault().getLanguage(); // es

    This object also has other methods that may be useful to you, such as:

        String l1 = Locale.getDefault().getCountry(); // español
    String l2 = Locale.getDefault().getDisplayCountry(); // España
    String l3 = Locale.getDefault().getDisplayLanguage(); // español
    String l4 = Locale.getDefault().getDisplayName();        // español (España)
    String l5 = Locale.getDefault().getDisplayVariant(); //""
    String l6 = Locale.getDefault().getISO3Language(); //spa
    String l7 = Locale.getDefault().getLanguage(); // es
    String l8 = Locale.getDefault().toString(); // es_ES
