On windows use win32 GetUserDefaultLocaleName instead of locale.getlocale due to non-BCP47 locale code.
Description of Changes
locale.getdefaultlocale
is depreciated and is slated for removal in python 3.15.locale.getlocale
as the suggested alternative does not return BCP47 locale codes ("English_United States"
rather than"en-US"
). Instead call the win32GetUserDefaultLocaleName
function via thectypes
builtin library in order to not add any dependencies.Issue(s) Resolved
Fixes #23318
