No, there is no LocaleData.class. DateFormat loads its data using the
ResourceBundle class, which appends a locale id to the classname before
looking for it. The locale it looks for is the value of Locale.getDefault(),
which currently I think will allways return language "en" and no country
unless the user.language and user.country properties are set. So
ResourceBundle.getBundle should actually be looking for the LocaleData_en
class. Are you getting an error?
