+.SH NAME
+localeconv
+\(em return locale-specific information
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <locale.h>
+.P
+struct lconv *localeconv(void);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
+ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
+ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+The
+\fIlocaleconv\fR()
+function shall set the components of an object with the type
+.BR "struct lconv"
+with the values appropriate for the formatting of numeric quantities
+(monetary and otherwise) according to the rules of the current locale.
+.P
+The members of the structure with type
+.BR "char *"
+are pointers to strings, any of which (except
+.BR decimal_point )
+can point to
+.BR \(dq\^\(dq ,
+to indicate that the value is not available in the current locale or is
+of zero length. The members with type
+.BR char
+are non-negative numbers, any of which can be
+{CHAR_MAX}
+to indicate that the value is not available in the current locale.
+.P
+The members include the following:
+.IP "\fBchar\ *decimal_point\fP" 6
+.br
+The radix character used to format non-monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *thousands_sep\fP" 6
+.br
+The character used to separate groups of digits before the
+decimal-point character in formatted non-monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *grouping\fP" 6
+.br
+A string whose elements taken as one-byte integer values indicate the
+size of each group of digits in formatted non-monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *int_curr_symbol\fP" 6
+.br
+The international currency symbol applicable to the current locale.
+The first three characters contain the alphabetic international
+currency symbol in accordance with those specified in the ISO\ 4217:\|2001 standard. The
+fourth character (immediately preceding the null byte) is the character
+used to separate the international currency symbol from the monetary
+quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *currency_symbol\fP" 6
+.br
+The local currency symbol applicable to the current locale.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *mon_decimal_point\fP" 6
+.br
+The radix character used to format monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *mon_thousands_sep\fP" 6
+.br
+The separator for groups of digits before the decimal-point in
+formatted monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *mon_grouping\fP" 6
+.br
+A string whose elements taken as one-byte integer values indicate the
+size of each group of digits in formatted monetary quantities.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *positive_sign\fP" 6
+.br
+The string used to indicate a non-negative valued formatted monetary
+quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ *negative_sign\fP" 6
+.br
+The string used to indicate a negative valued formatted monetary
+quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_frac_digits\fP" 6
+.br
+The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be
+displayed in an internationally formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ frac_digits\fP" 6
+.br
+The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be
+displayed in a formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ p_cs_precedes\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to 1 if the
+.BR currency_symbol
+precedes the value for a non-negative formatted monetary quantity. Set
+to 0 if the symbol succeeds the value.
+.IP "\fBchar\ p_sep_by_space\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the separation of the
+.BR currency_symbol ,
+the sign string, and the value for a non-negative formatted monetary
+quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ n_cs_precedes\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to 1 if the
+.BR currency_symbol
+precedes the value for a negative formatted monetary quantity. Set
+to 0 if the symbol succeeds the value.
+.IP "\fBchar\ n_sep_by_space\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the separation of the
+.BR currency_symbol ,
+the sign string, and the value for a negative formatted monetary
+quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ p_sign_posn\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the positioning of the
+.BR positive_sign
+for a non-negative formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ n_sign_posn\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the positioning of the
+.BR negative_sign
+for a negative formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_p_cs_precedes\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to 1 or 0 if the
+.BR int_curr_symbol
+respectively precedes or succeeds the value for a non-negative
+internationally formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_n_cs_precedes\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to 1 or 0 if the
+.BR int_curr_symbol
+respectively precedes or succeeds the value for a negative
+internationally formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_p_sep_by_space\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the separation of the
+.BR int_curr_symbol ,
+the sign string, and the value for a non-negative internationally
+formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_n_sep_by_space\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the separation of the
+.BR int_curr_symbol ,
+the sign string, and the value for a negative internationally formatted
+monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_p_sign_posn\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the positioning of the
+.BR positive_sign
+for a non-negative internationally formatted monetary quantity.
+.IP "\fBchar\ int_n_sign_posn\fP" 6
+.br
+Set to a value indicating the positioning of the
+.BR negative_sign
+for a negative internationally formatted monetary quantity.
+.P
+The elements of
+.BR grouping
+and
+.BR mon_grouping
+are interpreted according to the following:
+.IP {CHAR_MAX} 12
+No further grouping is to be performed.
+.IP 0 12
+The previous element is to be repeatedly used for the remainder of the
+digits.
+.IP "\fIother\fP" 12
+The integer value is the number of digits that comprise the current
+group. The next element is examined to determine the size of the next
+group of digits before the current group.
+.P
+The values of
+.BR p_sep_by_space ,
+.BR n_sep_by_space ,
+.BR int_p_sep_by_space ,
+and
+.BR int_n_sep_by_space
+are interpreted according to the following:
+.IP 0 6
+No space separates the currency symbol and value.
+.IP 1 6
+If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates
+them from the value; otherwise, a space separates the currency symbol
+from the value.
+.IP 2 6
+If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates
+them; otherwise, a space separates the sign string from the value.
+.P
+For
+.BR int_p_sep_by_space
+and
+.BR int_n_sep_by_space ,
+the fourth character of
+.BR int_curr_symbol
+is used instead of a space.
+.P
+The values of
+.BR p_sign_posn ,
+.BR n_sign_posn ,
+.BR int_p_sign_posn ,
+and
+.BR int_n_sign_posn
+are interpreted according to the following:
+.IP 0 6
+Parentheses surround the quantity and
+.BR currency_symbol
+or
+.BR int_curr_symbol .
+.IP 1 6
+The sign string precedes the quantity and
+.BR currency_symbol
+or
+.BR int_curr_symbol .
+.IP 2 6
+The sign string succeeds the quantity and
+.BR currency_symbol
+or
+.BR int_curr_symbol .
+.IP 3 6
+The sign string immediately precedes the
+.BR currency_symbol
+or
+.BR int_curr_symbol .
+.IP 4 6
+The sign string immediately succeeds the
+.BR currency_symbol
+or
+.BR int_curr_symbol .
+.P
+The implementation shall behave as if no function in this volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 calls
+\fIlocaleconv\fR().
+.P
+The
+\fIlocaleconv\fR()
+function need not be thread-safe.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+The
+\fIlocaleconv\fR()
+function shall return a pointer to the filled-in object. The application
+shall not modify the structure to which the return value points,
+nor any storage areas pointed to by pointers within the structure. The
+returned pointer, and pointers within the structure, might be
+invalidated or
+the structure
+or the storage areas
+might be overwritten by a subsequent call to
+\fIlocaleconv\fR().
+In addition,
+the returned pointer, and pointers within the structure, might be
+invalidated or
+the structure
+or the storage areas
+might be overwritten by subsequent calls to
+\fIsetlocale\fR()
+with the categories LC_ALL, LC_MONETARY, or LC_NUMERIC,
+or by calls to
+\fIuselocale\fR()
+which change the categories LC_MONETARY or LC_NUMERIC. The returned
+pointer, pointers within the structure, the structure, and the
+storage areas might also be invalidated if the calling thread is
+terminated.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
