It's a Windows thing. qlocale_win calls windows API getLocaleInfo(LOCALE_SNATIVELANGUAGENAME) ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd373863%28v=vs.85%29.aspx ). So Qt Developers would probably (and rightly) say "This is a Windows bug" and Indeed this might be fixed at some point in the far Future in Windows.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">But my Observation is Qt does not (and for Windows apparently can not) guarantee that QLocale::nativeLanguageName is not Empty. So KXmlGui should try to handle this. As I don't know how this is for other platforms and it only adds a tiny overhead I also don't think this should be Ifdefed for Windows.</p></pre>

<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">sure I can agree it is a Windows bug, but why workaround it in every single call to nativeLanguageName instead of inside Qt code? </p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I mean, we probably even have this problem in other KDE code.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">And sure, Qt takes a while to update/release so temporarily we may want this workaround committed so our users get the fix earlier but I would really appreciate if you could create a MR for Qt that either documents that nativeLanguageName can return empty or one that makes sure it is not empty by doing the same fallback we do here.</p></pre>

Apperantly QLocale::nativeLanguageName can return an Empty string (Qt 5.5 on Windows).</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This patch handles this and uses the non native QLocale::languageToString as a fallback. The idea is that a non native Name is better then no name (and a blank entry in the dialog) at all.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Ideally every language would have a native name but until this is the case I think this fallback makes sense.</p></pre>
