<p>A common usage is ‘<samp class="samp">(setlocale LC_ALL "")</samp>’, which initializes all
|
|
categories based on standard environment variables (<code class="code">LANG</code> etc).
|
|
For full details on categories and locale names see <a data-manual="libc" href="https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Locales.html#Locales">Locales and Internationalization</a> in <cite class="cite">The GNU C Library Reference
|
|
Manual</cite>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Note that <code class="code">setlocale</code> affects locale settings for the whole
|
|
process. See <a class="xref" href="i18n-Introduction.html">locale objects and
|
|
<code class="code">make-locale</code></a>, for a thread-safe alternative.
