Comment (by korli):
As a side note, an example using POSIX localeconv() (the comment from
Adrien regarding LC_* variables apply). Weirdly, this works on Haiku, but
not on Ubuntu for de_DE and it_IT.
{{{
#include <locale.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main ()
{
struct lconv * lc;
setlocale(LC_ALL, "de_DE.UTF-8");
lc = localeconv();
printf("Local Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->currency_symbol);
printf("International Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->int_curr_symbol);
printf("Decimal Point = %s\n", lc->decimal_point);
setlocale(LC_ALL, "it_IT.UTF-8");
lc = localeconv();
printf("Local Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->currency_symbol);
printf("International Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->int_curr_symbol);
printf("Decimal Point = %s\n", lc->decimal_point);
setlocale(LC_ALL, "fr_FR.UTF-8");
lc = localeconv();
printf("Local Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->currency_symbol);
printf("International Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->int_curr_symbol);
printf("Decimal Point = %s\n", lc->decimal_point);
setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.UTF-8");
lc = localeconv();
printf("Local Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->currency_symbol);
printf("International Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->int_curr_symbol);
printf("Decimal Point = %s\n", lc->decimal_point);
setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_GB.UTF-8");
lc = localeconv();
printf ("Local Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->currency_symbol);
printf ("International Currency Symbol: %s\n",lc->int_curr_symbol);
printf("Decimal Point = %s\n", lc->decimal_point);
return 0;
}
}}}
