Globalization Subsystem ChangeLog

cl.global.1 Runtime Authentication Added for System APIs

The internationalization component of the globalization subsystem adds runtime authentication for system APIs in certain scenarios. The following changes are made in API version 9 and later: - Setting the system language, country or region, and area - Setting the 24-hour format of the system - Adding and removing the preferred language - Setting localized numbers

You need to adapt your application based on the following information.

Change Impacts

APIs involved in the preceding scenarios can be properly called only by system applications that have the UPDATE_CONFIGURATION permission.

Key API/Component Changes

Involved APIs:
- setSystemLanguage(language: string): void;
- setSystemRegion(region: string): void;
- setSystemLocale(locale: string): void;
- set24HourClock(option: boolean): void;
- addPreferredLanguage(language: string, index?: number): void;
- removePreferredLanguage(index: number): void;
- setUsingLocalDigit(flag: boolean): void;

Adaptation Guide

Make sure the application trying to call any of the above APIs is a system application. Non-system applications are not allowed to call the APIs. An exception will be thrown upon lack of a necessary permission or a call request from a non-system application. The exception can be captured via try-catch.

import I18n from '@ohos.i18n'

try {
  I18n.System.setSystemLanguage('zh');
} catch(error) {
  console.error(`call System.setSystemLanguage failed, error code: ${error.code}, message: ${error.message}.`)
}
