-.fi -.SH DESCRIPTION -The -.BR setlocale () -function is used to set or query the program's current locale. -.P -If -.I locale -is not NULL, -the program's current locale is modified according to the arguments. -The argument -.I category -determines which parts of the program's current locale should be modified. -.TS -lB lB -lB lx. -Category Governs -LC_ALL All of the locale -LC_ADDRESS T{ -Formatting of addresses and -geography-related items (*) -T} -LC_COLLATE String collation -LC_CTYPE Character classification -LC_IDENTIFICATION T{ -Metadata describing the locale (*) -T} -LC_MEASUREMENT T{ -Settings related to measurements -(metric versus US customary) (*) -T} -LC_MESSAGES T{ -Localizable natural-language messages -T} -LC_MONETARY T{ -Formatting of monetary values -T} -LC_NAME T{ -Formatting of salutations for persons (*) -T} -LC_NUMERIC T{ -Formatting of nonmonetary numeric values -T} -LC_PAPER T{ -Settings related to the standard paper size (*) -T} -LC_TELEPHONE T{ -Formats to be used with telephone services (*) -T} -LC_TIME T{ -Formatting of date and time values -T} -.TE -.P -The categories marked with an asterisk in the above table -are GNU extensions. -For further information on these locale categories, see -.BR locale (7). -.P -The argument -.I locale -is a pointer to a character string containing the -required setting of -.IR category . -Such a string is either a well-known constant like "C" or "da_DK" -(see below), or an opaque string that was returned by another call of -.BR setlocale (). -.P -If -.I locale -is an empty string, -.BR \[dq]\[dq] , -each part of the locale that should be modified is set according to the -environment variables. -The details are implementation-dependent. -For glibc, first (regardless of -.IR category ), -the environment variable -.B LC_ALL -is inspected, -next the environment variable with the same name as the category -(see the table above), -and finally the environment variable -.BR LANG . -The first existing environment variable is used. -If its value is not a valid locale specification, the locale -is unchanged, and -.BR setlocale () -returns NULL. -.P -The locale -.B \[dq]C\[dq] -or -.B \[dq]POSIX\[dq] -is a portable locale; -it exists on all conforming systems. -.P -A locale name is typically of the form -.IR language "[_" territory "][." codeset "][@" modifier "]," -where -.I language -is an ISO\~639 language code, -.I territory -is an ISO\~3166 country code, and -.I codeset -is a character set or encoding identifier like -.B "ISO\-8859\-1" -or -.BR "UTF\-8" . -For a list of all supported locales, try "locale \-a" (see -.BR locale (1)). -.P -If -.I locale -is NULL, the current locale is only queried, not modified. -.P -On startup of the main program, the portable -.B \[dq]C\[dq] -locale is selected as default. -A program may be made portable to all locales by calling: -.P -.in +4n -.EX -setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); -.EE -.in -.P -after program initialization, and then: -.IP \[bu] 3 -using the values returned from a -.BR localeconv (3) -call for locale-dependent information; -.IP \[bu] -using the multibyte and wide character functions for text processing if -.BR "MB_CUR_MAX > 1" ; -.IP \[bu] -using -.BR strcoll (3) -and -.BR strxfrm (3) -to compare strings; and -.IP \[bu] -using -.BR wcscoll (3) -and -.BR wcsxfrm (3) -to compare wide-character strings. -.SH RETURN VALUE -A successful call to -.BR setlocale () -returns an opaque string that corresponds to the locale set. -This string may be allocated in static storage. -The string returned is such that a subsequent call with that string -and its associated category will restore that part of the process's -locale. -The return value is NULL if the request cannot be honored. -.SH ATTRIBUTES -For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see -.BR attributes (7). -.TS -allbox;
