Identifying Supported Locales
When you perform directory operations that require you to specify a locale, such as a search operation, you can use a language tag or a collation order object identifier, OID.
A language tag is a string that begins with the two-character lowercase language code that identifies the language, as defined in ISO standard 639. If necessary to distinguish regional differences in language, the language tag may also contain a country code, which is a two-character string, as defined in ISO standard 3166. The language code and country code are separated by a hyphen. For example, the language tag used to identify the American English locale is en-US.
An OID is a decimal number that uniquely identifies an object, such as an attribute or object class.
When you perform an international search in a directory, use either the language tag or the OID to identify the collation order you want to use. When you set up an international index, use the OIDs.
The following table lists the locales supported by Directory Server. It identifies the associated language tags and OIDs.
