localeconv — get numeric formatting information
#include <locale.h>
struct lconv
*localeconv( |
void) ; |
The localeconv
() function
returns a pointer to a struct
lconv for the current locale. This structure is
shown in locale(7), and contains all
values associated with the locale categories LC_NUMERIC
and LC_MONETARY
. Programs may also use the
functions printf(3) and strfmon(3), which behave
according to the actual locale in use.
The localeconv
() function
returns a pointer to a filled in struct lconv. This structure may
be (in glibc, is
) statically
allocated, and may be overwritten by subsequent calls.
According to POSIX, the caller should not modify the contents
of this structure. The localeconv
() function always succeeds.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
