newlocale(3c)
newlocale(3C) Standard C Library Functions newlocale(3C)
NAME
newlocale - create or modify a locale object
SYNOPSIS
#include <locale.h>
locale_t newlocale(int category_mask, const char *locale, locale_t base);
DESCRIPTION
The newlocale() function creates a new locale object or modifies an ex‐
isting one. If the base argument is (locale_t)0, a new locale object is
created. It is unspecified whether the locale object pointed to by base
is modified, or freed and a new locale object created.
The category_mask argument specifies the locale categories to be set or
modified. Values for category_mask shall be constructed by a bitwise-
inclusive OR of the symbolic constants LC_CTYPE_MASK, LC_NUMERIC_MASK,
LC_TIME_MASK, LC_COLLATE_MASK, LC_MONETARY_MASK, and LC_MESSAGES_MASK.
Alternatively, the mask can be specified as LC_ALL_MASK, which is
equivalent to ORing all of the preceding constants.
For each category with the corresponding bit set in category_mask the
data from the locale named by locale is used. In the case of modifying
an existing locale object, the data from the locale named by locale re‐
places the existing data within the locale object. If a completely new
locale object is created, the data for all sections not requested by
category_mask is taken from the default locale.
The following preset values of locale are defined for all settings of
category_mask:
"POSIX" Specifies the minimal environment for C-language translation
called the POSIX locale.
"C" Equivalent to POSIX.
"" Specifies an implementation-defined native environment. This
corresponds to the value of the associated environment vari‐
ables, LC_* and LANG.
If the base argument is not (locale_t)0 and the newlocale() function
call succeeds, the contents of base are unspecified. Applications shall
ensure that they stop using base as a locale object before calling
newlocale(). If the function call fails and the base argument is not
(locale_t)0, the contents of base remain valid and unchanged.
The behavior is undefined if the base argument is the special locale
object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE, or is not a valid locale object handle and is
not (locale_t)0.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the newlocale() function returns a handle
which the caller may use on subsequent calls to duplocale(), freelo‐
cale(), and other functions taking a locale_t argument.
Upon failure, the newlocale() function returns (locale_t)0 and set er‐
rno to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The newlocale() function will fail if:
ENOMEM There is not enough memory available to create the locale ob‐
ject or load the locale data.
EINVAL The category_mask contains a bit that does not correspond to
a valid category or the locale argument is not a valid string
pointer.
ENOENT For any of the categories in category_mask, the locale data
is not available.
USAGE
Handles for locale objects returned by the newlocale() function should
either be released by a corresponding call to freelocale(), or be used
as a base locale to another newlocale() call.
The special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE must not be passed for the
base argument, even when returned by the uselocale() function.
