Hi everybody,

I am developing a Civicrm Project in German language.
After I save Address on Contact Summary screen, i get message "Unsupported locale specified to parseStreetAddress: de_DE. Proceeding with en_US locale."
In file modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/Address.php, i see function parseStreetAddress($streetAddress, $locale = NULL):
(see image attachment)

/* locales supported include:
     *  en_US - http://pe.usps.com/cpim/ftp/pubs/pub28/pub28.pdf
     *  en_CA - http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/PGaddress-e.asp
     *  fr_CA - http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/PGaddress-f.asp
     *          NB: common use of comma after street number also supported
     *  default is en_US
     */

    $supportedLocalesForParsing = array('en_US', 'en_CA', 'fr_CA');
    if (!$locale) {
      $locale = $config->lcMessages;
    }
    // as different locale explicitly requested but is not available, display warning message and set $locale = 'en_US'
    if (!in_array($locale, $supportedLocalesForParsing)) {
      CRM_Core_Session::setStatus(ts('Unsupported locale specified to parseStreetAddress: %1. Proceeding with en_US locale.', array(1 => $locale)));
      $locale = 'en_US';
    }
Why do the supported locales only include en_US, en_CA, fr_CA ?
Thanks,

Thanks for your information, Dave Greenberg.

Now, we are proceeding with en_US locale (Is this proceeded in Core CiviCRM?). If having any locate documentation for parsing German street addresses, I will discuss here.

All the best,
