Belarusian vs Byelorussian

quendimax

Hi.
I don't know where it write, so I'll write here.
In the QLocale class in the Language enum writed QLocale::Byelorussian. But this name is old. It was at the time of the Soviet Union. And it must be Belarusian now. In the Country enum the name is right — Belarus.
This can be fixed in Qt5?

Well, the chances to get lost here are pretty high. It is not ensured that suggestions and wishes are picked up for implementation.

You should put it into the "bug tracker JIRA":https://bugreports.qt-project.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa
This will ensure that it is picked up and followed up.

Can it be fixed? You bet it can. Will it get fixed because of you asking? Fat chance. You might have some chance if you file a bug report, or alternatively - fix it yourself.

I understood. Thanks.

Also, I doubt the old version will disapear. You might get another entry with the same value but the new name in the enum, but for backwards compatibility really replacing the value is not an option I think.

The mark of Soviet oppression must remain for compatibility reasons :)

Qt is not about politics, either way.

Hope it was fixed with new name like Belarussian not just Belarusian :)

I can't find the change on Gerrit with that code?

@AcerExtensa: CLDR defines it as "Belarusian". I believe it. can you convince me to add yet another 's' to the new name?

@Andre: me neither...strange. it's Change-Id is Iff50aecd1c762b6399cd151aebb955f341d366c6

Thanks, that does find it. I also see that the fix is basically as I predicted it would be: a value added to the enum, but the old one still in for compatibility reasons. :-)

My bad, "IANA":http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry and "BCP-47":http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47 defines it as Belarusian... with only one s...
