## Interface LocaleProvider

- All Known Subinterfaces:
    ValidatorContext
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    ActionSupport, DefaultActionSupport, DefaultLocaleProvider, DelegatingValidatorContext, VisitorFieldValidator.AppendingValidatorContext

      public interface LocaleProvider

  Indicates that the implementing class can provide its own `Locale`.

  This is useful for when an action may wish override the default locale. All that is needed is to implement this interface and return your own custom locale. The `TextProvider` interface uses this interface heavily for retrieving internationalized messages from resource bundles.
