L10NManager (codenameone-core 7.0.118 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.codename1.l10n.L10NManager

```
public class L10NManager
extends Object
```
The localization manager allows adapting values for display in different locales thru parsing and formatting capabilities (similar to JavaSE's DateFormat/NumberFormat). It also includes language/locale/currency related API's similar to Locale/currency API's from JavaSE.
The sample code below just lists the various capabilities of the API:
