Data from previous versions of Rational® DOORS® might
not have a locale property. Users with the manage database power can
set a default locale for any legacy data that does not have a locale
property.
About this task
Legacy textual attributes that do not have a locale property
inherit their locale property from the Legacy Data Locale. If the
Legacy Data Locale has not been set, the locale is derived from the
current client session.
Legacy module names and descriptions,
and user and group information that include, for example, accented
characters must be interpreted according to a code page to be displayed
correctly.
- Data that has been saved by Rational DOORS 6.0a is interpreted as UTF-8
Unicode data.
- Data that has been saved by other previous versions of Rational DOORS is interpreted using the default code
page for the Legacy Data Locale. If the Legacy Data Locale has not
been set, the Latin-1 code page is used.
Procedure
On the General tab, select the locale
that you want to use for legacy data from the Legacy data
locale list.
