Detailed Description

Container class for localization functionality.

The locale class is first a class wrapper for C library locales. It is also an extensible container for user-defined localization. A locale is a collection of facets that implement various localization features such as money, time, and number printing.

Constructing C++ locales does not change the C library locale.

This library supports efficient construction and copying of locales through a reference counting implementation of the locale class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

std::locale::locale ( )
throw (
)

Default constructor.

Constructs a copy of the global locale. If no locale has been explicitly set, this is the C locale.

std::locale::locale ( const locale __other)
throw (
)

Copy constructor.

Constructs a copy of other.

Parameters
__otherThe locale to copy.
std::locale::locale ( const char *  __s)
explicit

Named locale constructor.

Constructs a copy of the named C library locale.

Parameters
__sName of the locale to construct.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif __s is null or an undefined locale.
std::locale::locale ( const locale __base,
const char *  __s,
category  __cat 
)

Construct locale with facets from another locale.

Constructs a copy of the locale base. The facets specified by cat are replaced with those from the locale named by s. If base is named, this locale instance will also be named.

Parameters
__baseThe locale to copy.
__sName of the locale to use facets from.
__catSet of categories defining the facets to use from __s.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif __s is null or an undefined locale.
std::locale::locale ( const locale __base,
const locale __add,
category  __cat 
)

Construct locale with facets from another locale.

Constructs a copy of the locale base. The facets specified by cat are replaced with those from the locale add. If base and add are named, this locale instance will also be named.

Parameters
__baseThe locale to copy.
__addThe locale to use facets from.
__catSet of categories defining the facets to use from add.
template<typename _Facet >
std::locale::locale ( const locale __other,
_Facet *  __f 
)

Construct locale with another facet.

Constructs a copy of the locale __other. The facet __f is added to __other, replacing an existing facet of type Facet if there is one. If __f is null, this locale is a copy of __other.

Parameters
__otherThe locale to copy.
__fThe facet to add in.
std::locale::~locale ( )
throw (
)

Locale destructor.

Return reference to the C locale.

template<typename _Facet >
locale std::locale::combine ( const locale __other) const

Construct locale with another facet.

Constructs and returns a new copy of this locale. Adds or replaces an existing facet of type Facet from the locale other into the new locale.

Template Parameters
_FacetThe facet type to copy from other
Parameters
__otherThe locale to copy from.
Returns
Newly constructed locale.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif __other has no facet of type _Facet.
static locale std::locale::global ( const locale __loc)
static

Set global locale.

This function sets the global locale to the argument and returns a copy of the previous global locale. If the argument has a name, it will also call std::setlocale(LC_ALL, loc.name()).

Parameters
__locThe new locale to make global.
Returns
Copy of the old global locale.
string std::locale::name ( ) const

Return locale name.

Returns
Locale name or "*" if unnamed.
bool std::locale::operator!= ( const locale __other) const
throw (
)
inline

Locale inequality.

Parameters
__otherThe locale to compare against.
Returns
! (*this == __other)

References operator==().

template<typename _Char , typename _Traits , typename _Alloc >
bool std::locale::operator() ( const basic_string< _Char, _Traits, _Alloc > &  __s1,
const basic_string< _Char, _Traits, _Alloc > &  __s2 
) const

Compare two strings according to collate.

Template operator to compare two strings using the compare function of the collate facet in this locale. One use is to provide the locale to the sort function. For example, a vector v of strings could be sorted according to locale loc by doing:

std::sort(v.begin(), v.end(), loc);
Parameters
__s1First string to compare.
__s2Second string to compare.
Returns
True if collate<_Char> facet compares __s1 < __s2, else false.
const locale& std::locale::operator= ( const locale __other)
throw (
)

Assignment operator.

Set this locale to be a copy of other.

Parameters
__otherThe locale to copy.
Returns
A reference to this locale.
bool std::locale::operator== ( const locale __other) const
throw (
)

Locale equality.

Parameters
__otherThe locale to compare against.
Returns
True if other and this refer to the same locale instance, are copies, or have the same name. False otherwise.
