The below text is quoted from the latest POSIX draft: : The values of locale categories shall be determined by a precedence : order; the first condition met below determines the value: : : 1. If the LC_ALL environment variable is defined and is not null, : the value of LC_ALL shall be used. : 2. If the LC_* environment variable (LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, : LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, LC_TIME) is defined and is not null, the : value of the environment variable shall be used to initialize the : category that corresponds to the environment variable. : 3. If the LANG environment variable is defined and is not null, the : value of the LANG environment variable shall be used. : 4. If the LANG environment variable is not set or is set to the empty : string, the implementation-defined default locale shall be used. The conditions 1 and 2 were interchanged, i.e., LC_* were looked first, then LC_ALL, then LANG (note that LC_ALL and LANG were essentially the same, providing the default, with LC_ALL taking precedence over LANG). Now, LC_ALL and LANG serve the different purposes. LC_ALL overrides any LC_*, and LANG provides the default fallback. Testcase: /usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C LC_TIME=de_DE.ISO_8859-1 /bin/date Should return date in the "C" locale format. Inspired by: date(1) reference page in the Draft |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
