NAME¶

libclocale.h — Library to support cross-platform C locale functions

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <libclocale.h>

Support functions
const char *
libclocale_get_version(void);

int
libclocale_initialize(const char *domain_name, libclocale_error_t **error);

Codepage functions
int
libclocale_codepage_get(int *codepage, libclocale_error_t **error);

int
libclocale_codepage_set(int codepage, libclocale_error_t **error);

int
libclocale_codepage_copy_from_string(int *codepage, const char *string, size_t string_length, uint32_t feature_flags, libclocale_error_t **error);

Available when compiled with wide character string support:
int
libclocale_codepage_copy_from_string_wide(int *codepage, const wchar_t *string, size_t string_length, uint32_t feature_flags, libclocale_error_t **error);

Locale functions
int
libclocale_locale_get_codepage(int *codepage, libclocale_error_t **error);

int
libclocale_locale_get_decimal_point(int *decimal_point, libclocale_error_t **error);

DESCRIPTION¶

The libclocale_get_version() function is used to retrieve the library version.

RETURN VALUES¶

Most of the functions return NULL or -1 on error, dependent on the return type. For the actual return values see "libclocale.h".

ENVIRONMENT¶

None

FILES¶

None

NOTES¶

libclocale can be compiled with wide character support (wchar_t).

To compile libclocale with wide character support use: ./configure --enable-wide-character-type=yes
or define: _UNICODE
or UNICODE
during compilation.

LIBCLOCALE_WIDE_CHARACTER_TYPE
in libclocale/features.h can be used to determine if libclocale was compiled with wide character support.
