(the updated version of this test will be in WS soon, please see mini demo).


Specification excerpt:
======================
--------- J2SE API spec v.1.5 ---------
...
public void setLocale(Locale newLocale)
               throws PropertyVetoException
Sets the locale of this BeanContext.

Parameters:
newLocale - the new locale. This method call will have no effect if newLocale is null.
Throws:
PropertyVetoException - if the new value is rejected
...
---------- end-of-excerpt ---------------

Problem description
===================
The designated method does change the locale property to null.
But should not as spec says.

    
Minimized test:
===============
------- T.java -------
import java.beans.beancontext.*;
import java.beans.*;
import java.util.*;

public class T {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BeanContextSupport bcs = new BeanContextSupport();
        try {
            bcs.setLocale(Locale.US);
            System.out.println("LOCALE (1): "+bcs.getLocale());
            bcs.setLocale(null);
            System.out.println("LOCALE (should not change): "+bcs.getLocale());
        } catch (PropertyVetoException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

------- end-of-T.java -------

Minimized test output:
======================
LOCALE (1): en_US
LOCALE (should not change): null
