Sys.setlocale isolation between applications #1477

Open chrisirhc opened 7 years ago

chrisirhc commented 7 years ago

Right now if an application does Sys.setlocale to a particular value and another application is started on the same Shiny server, the locale will be different from the system default. Is this intended behavior?

Is there any way to prevent applications from overriding the system default locale for applications running from the same server?

Hi, sorry for taking so long to get back to you!

Sys.setlocale sets the locale for the R process, so other applications in different processes shouldn't be affected. It sounds like you're seeing otherwise. If this issue is still important to you, could you please elaborate on how you're serving Shiny (Connect/Shiny Server/etc.) and its configuration?
