How dose Java handle Locales for which there is not FormatData impl.

Hi

if no FormatData class is available for a locale, what does Java do. For example:
I create a Local with
Locale loc = new Locale("de", "BE"); //German, Belgium


Unfortunately, for Belgium only French and Dutch is available. So how does Java format Date/Time and Numbers? What are the rules?

Thanks

Note: When you ask for a resource for a particular locale, you get back the best available match, not necessarily precisely what you asked for. For more information, look at ResourceBundle.

Above text is from the link http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Locale.html . for more detail read the api.
