.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn localeconv
|
|
function returns a pointer to a structure
|
|
which provides parameters for formatting numbers,
|
|
especially currency values:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
struct lconv {
|
|
char *decimal_point;
|
|
char *thousands_sep;
|
|
char *grouping;
|
|
char *int_curr_symbol;
|
|
char *currency_symbol;
|
|
char *mon_decimal_point;
|
|
char *mon_thousands_sep;
|
|
char *mon_grouping;
|
|
char *positive_sign;
|
|
char *negative_sign;
|
|
char int_frac_digits;
|
|
char frac_digits;
|
|
char p_cs_precedes;
|
|
char p_sep_by_space;
|
|
char n_cs_precedes;
|
|
char n_sep_by_space;
|
|
char p_sign_posn;
|
|
char n_sign_posn;

char int_p_cs_precedes;
|

char int_n_cs_precedes;

char int_p_sep_by_space;
|
|
char int_n_sep_by_space;

char int_p_sign_posn;
|
|
char int_n_sign_posn;

};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The individual fields have the following meanings:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width mon_decimal_point
|
|
.It Va decimal_point
|
|
The decimal point character, except for currency values,
|
|
cannot be an empty string.
|
|
.It Va thousands_sep
|
|
The separator between groups of digits
|
|
before the decimal point, except for currency values.
|
|
.It Va grouping
|
|
The sizes of the groups of digits, except for currency values.
|
|
This is a pointer to a vector of integers, each of size
|
|
.Vt char ,
|
|
representing group size from low order digit groups
|
|
to high order (right to left).
|
|
The list may be terminated with 0 or
|
|
.Dv CHAR_MAX .
|
|
If the list is terminated with 0,
|
|
the last group size before the 0 is repeated to account for all the digits.
|
|
If the list is terminated with
|
|
.Dv CHAR_MAX ,
|
|
no more grouping is performed.
|
|
.It Va int_curr_symbol
|
|
The standardized international currency symbol.
|
|
.It Va currency_symbol
|
|
The local currency symbol.
|
|
.It Va mon_decimal_point
|
|
The decimal point character for currency values.
|
|
.It Va mon_thousands_sep
|
|
The separator for digit groups in currency values.
|
|
.It Va mon_grouping
|
|
Like
|
|
.Va grouping
|
|
but for currency values.
|
|
.It Va positive_sign
|
|
The character used to denote nonnegative currency values,
|
|
usually the empty string.
|
|
.It Va negative_sign
|
|
The character used to denote negative currency values,
|
|
usually a minus sign.
|
|
.It Va int_frac_digits
|
|
The number of digits after the decimal point
|
|
in an international-style currency value.
|
|
.It Va frac_digits
|
|
The number of digits after the decimal point
|
|
in the local style for currency values.
|
|
.It Va p_cs_precedes
|
|
1 if the currency symbol precedes the currency value
|
|
for nonnegative values, 0 if it follows.
|
|
.It Va p_sep_by_space
|
|
1 if a space is inserted between the currency symbol
|
|
and the currency value for nonnegative values, 0 otherwise.
|
|
.It Va n_cs_precedes
|
|
Like
|
|
.Va p_cs_precedes
|
|
but for negative values.
|
|
.It Va n_sep_by_space
|
|
Like
|
|
.Va p_sep_by_space
|
|
but for negative values.
|
|
.It Va p_sign_posn
|
|
The location of the

|
.Va positive_sign
|
|
with respect to a nonnegative quantity and the
|
|
.Va currency_symbol ,
|
|

|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 3n -compact
|
|
.It Li 0
|
|
Parentheses around the entire string.
|
|
.It Li 1
|
|
Before the string.
|
|
.It Li 2
|
|
After the string.
|
|
.It Li 3
|
|
Just before
|
|
.Va currency_symbol .
|
|
.It Li 4
|
|
Just after
|
|
.Va currency_symbol .
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Va n_sign_posn
|
|
Like
|
|

|
|
but for negative currency values.
|
|
.It Va int_p_cs_precedes
|
|
Same as

.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Unless mentioned above,
|
|
an empty string as a value for a field
|
|
indicates a zero length result or
|
|
a value that is not in the current locale.
|
|
A
|
|
.Dv CHAR_MAX
|
|
result similarly denotes an unavailable value.
