An operation that requires a <code>Locale</code> to perform 34 * its task is called <em>locale-sensitive</em> and uses the <code>Locale</code> 35 * to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number 36 * is a locale-sensitive operation--the number should be formatted 37 * according to the customs/conventions of the user's native country, 38 * region, or culture. In the C APIs, a locales is simply a const char string. 39 * 40 * <P> 41 * You create a <code>Locale</code> with one of the three options listed below. 42 * Each of the component is separated by '_' in the locale string. 43 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 44 * <pre> 45 * \code 46 * newLanguage 47 * 48 * newLanguage + newCountry 49 * 50 * newLanguage + newCountry + newVariant 51 * \endcode 52 * </pre> 53 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 54 * The first option is a valid <STRONG>ISO 55 * Language Code.</STRONG> These codes are the lower-case two-letter 56 * codes as defined by ISO-639. 57 * You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as: 58 * <BR><a href ="http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt"> 59 * http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt</a> 60 * 61 * <P> 62 * The second option includes an additonal <STRONG>ISO Country 63 * Code.</STRONG> These codes are the upper-case two-letter codes 64 * as defined by ISO-3166. 65 * You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as: 66 * <BR><a href="http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html"> 67 * http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html</a> 68 * 69 * <P> 70 * The third option requires another additonal information--the 71 * <STRONG>Variant.</STRONG> 72 * The Variant codes are vendor and browser-specific. 73 * For example, use WIN for Windows, MAC for Macintosh, and POSIX for POSIX. 74 * Where there are two variants, separate them with an underscore, and 75 * put the most important one first. For 76 * example, a Traditional Spanish collation might be referenced, with 77 * "ES", "ES", "Traditional_WIN". 78 * 79 * <P> 80 * Because a <code>Locale</code> is just an identifier for a region, 81 * no validity check is performed when you specify a <code>Locale</code>. 82 * If you want to see whether particular resources are available for the 83 * <code>Locale</code> you asked for, you must query those resources. For 84 * example, ask the <code>UNumberFormat</code> for the locales it supports 85 * using its <code>getAvailable</code> method. 86 * <BR><STRONG>Note:</STRONG> When you ask for a resource for a particular 87 * locale, you get back the best available match, not necessarily 88 * precisely what you asked for. For more information, look at 89 * <code>UResourceBundle</code>. 90 * 91 * <P> 92 * The <code>Locale</code> provides a number of convenient constants 93 * that you can use to specify the commonly used 94 * locales. For example, the following refers to a locale 95 * for the United States: 96 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 97 * <pre> 98 * \code 99 * ULOC_US 100 * \endcode 101 * </pre> 102 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 103 * 104 * <P> 105 * Once you've specified a locale you can query it for information about 106 * itself. Use <code>uloc_getCountry</code> to get the ISO Country Code and 107 * <code>uloc_getLanguage</code> to get the ISO Language Code. You can 108 * use <code>uloc_getDisplayCountry</code> to get the 109 * name of the country suitable for displaying to the user. Similarly, 110 * you can use <code>uloc_getDisplayLanguage</code> to get the name of 111 * the language suitable for displaying to the user. Interestingly, 112 * the <code>uloc_getDisplayXXX</code> methods are themselves locale-sensitive 113 * and have two versions: one that uses the default locale and one 114 * that takes a locale as an argument and displays the name or country in 115 * a language appropriate to that locale. 116 * 117 * <P> 118 * The ICU provides a number of services that perform locale-sensitive 119 * operations. For example, the <code>unum_xxx</code> functions format 120 * numbers, currency, or percentages in a locale-sensitive manner. 121 * </P> 122 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 123 * <pre> 124 * \code 125 * UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; 126 * UNumberFormat *nf; 127 * const char* myLocale = "fr_FR"; 128 * 129 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_DEFAULT, NULL, success ); 130 * unum_close(nf); 131 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_CURRENCY, NULL, success ); 132 * unum_close(nf); 133 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_PERCENT, NULL, success ); 134 * unum_close(nf); 135 * \endcode 136 * </pre> 137 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 138 * Each of these methods has two variants; one with an explicit locale 139 * and one without; the latter using the default locale. 140 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 141 * <pre> 142 * \code 143 * 144 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_DEFAULT, myLocale, success ); 145 * unum_close(nf); 146 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_CURRENCY, myLocale, success ); 147 * unum_close(nf); 148 * nf = unum_open( UNUM_PERCENT, myLocale, success ); 149 * unum_close(nf); 150 * \endcode 151 * </pre> 152 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 153 * A <code>Locale</code> is the mechanism for identifying the kind of services 154 * (<code>UNumberFormat</code>) that you would like to get. The locale is 155 * <STRONG>just</STRONG> a mechanism for identifying these services. 156 * 157 * <P> 158 * Each international serivce that performs locale-sensitive operations 159 * allows you 160 * to get all the available objects of that type. You can sift 161 * through these objects by language, country, or variant, 162 * and use the display names to present a menu to the user. 163 * For example, you can create a menu of all the collation objects 164 * suitable for a given language. Such classes implement these 165 * three class methods: 166 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 167 * <pre> 168 * \code 169 * const char* uloc_getAvailable(int32_t index); 170 * int32_t uloc_countAvailable(); 171 * int32_t 172 * uloc_getDisplayName(const char* localeID, 173 * const char* inLocaleID, 174 * UChar* result, 175 * int32_t maxResultSize, 176 * UErrorCode* err); 177 * 178 * \endcode 179 * </pre> 180 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 181 * <P> 182 * Concerning POSIX/RFC1766 Locale IDs, 183 * the getLanguage/getCountry/getVariant/getName functions do understand 184 * the POSIX type form of language_COUNTRY.ENCODING\@VARIANT 185 * and if there is not an ICU-stype variant, uloc_getVariant() for example 186 * will return the one listed after the \@at sign. As well, the hyphen 187 * "-" is recognized as a country/variant separator similarly to RFC1766. 188 * So for example, "en-us" will be interpreted as en_US. 189 * As a result, uloc_getName() is far from a no-op, and will have the 190 * effect of converting POSIX/RFC1766 IDs into ICU form, although it does 191 * NOT map any of the actual codes (i.e. russian->ru) in any way. 192 * Applications should call uloc_getName() at the point where a locale ID 193 * is coming from an external source (user entry, OS, web browser) 194 * and pass the resulting string to other ICU functions. For example, 195 * don't use de-de\@EURO as an argument to resourcebundle. 196 * 197 * @see UResourceBundle 198 */ 199 200 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 201 #define ULOC_CHINESE "zh" 202 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 203 #define ULOC_ENGLISH "en" 204 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 205 #define ULOC_FRENCH "fr" 206 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 207 #define ULOC_GERMAN "de" 208 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 209 #define ULOC_ITALIAN "it" 210 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 211 #define ULOC_JAPANESE "ja" 212 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 213 #define ULOC_KOREAN "ko" 214 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 215 #define ULOC_SIMPLIFIED_CHINESE "zh_CN" 216 /** Useful constant for this language. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 217 #define ULOC_TRADITIONAL_CHINESE "zh_TW" 218 219 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 220 #define ULOC_CANADA "en_CA" 221 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 222 #define ULOC_CANADA_FRENCH "fr_CA" 223 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 224 #define ULOC_CHINA "zh_CN" 225 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 226 #define ULOC_PRC "zh_CN" 227 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 228 #define ULOC_FRANCE "fr_FR" 229 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 230 #define ULOC_GERMANY "de_DE" 231 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 232 #define ULOC_ITALY "it_IT" 233 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 234 #define ULOC_JAPAN "ja_JP" 235 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 236 #define ULOC_KOREA "ko_KR" 237 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 238 #define ULOC_TAIWAN "zh_TW" 239 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 240 #define ULOC_UK "en_GB" 241 /** Useful constant for this country/region. @stable ICU 2.0 */ 242 #define ULOC_US "en_US" 243 244 /** 245 * Useful constant for the maximum size of the language part of a locale ID. 246 * (including the terminating NULL). 247 * @stable ICU 2.0 248 */ 249 #define ULOC_LANG_CAPACITY 12 250 251 /** 252 * Useful constant for the maximum size of the country part of a locale ID 253 * (including the terminating NULL). 254 * @stable ICU 2.0 255 */ 256 #define ULOC_COUNTRY_CAPACITY 4 257 /** 258 * Useful constant for the maximum size of the whole locale ID 259 * (including the terminating NULL and all keywords). 260 * @stable ICU 2.0 261 */ 262 #define ULOC_FULLNAME_CAPACITY 157 263 264 /** 265 * Useful constant for the maximum size of the script part of a locale ID 266 * (including the terminating NULL). 267 * @stable ICU 2.8 268 */ 269 #define ULOC_SCRIPT_CAPACITY 6 270 271 /** 272 * Useful constant for the maximum size of keywords in a locale 273 * @stable ICU 2.8 274 */ 275 #define ULOC_KEYWORDS_CAPACITY 50 276 277 /** 278 * Useful constant for the maximum total size of keywords and their values in a locale 279 * @stable ICU 2.8 280 */ 281 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_AND_VALUES_CAPACITY 100 282 283 /** 284 * Invariant character separating keywords from the locale string 285 * @stable ICU 2.8 286 */ 287 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_SEPARATOR '@' 288 289 /** 290 * Unicode code point for '@' separating keywords from the locale string. 291 * @see ULOC_KEYWORD_SEPARATOR 292 * @stable ICU 4.6 293 */ 294 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_SEPARATOR_UNICODE 0x40 295 296 /** 297 * Invariant character for assigning value to a keyword 298 * @stable ICU 2.8 299 */ 300 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_ASSIGN '=' 301 302 /** 303 * Unicode code point for '=' for assigning value to a keyword. 304 * @see ULOC_KEYWORD_ASSIGN 305 * @stable ICU 4.6 306 */ 307 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_ASSIGN_UNICODE 0x3D 308 309 /** 310 * Invariant character separating keywords 311 * @stable ICU 2.8 312 */ 313 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_ITEM_SEPARATOR ';' 314 315 /** 316 * Unicode code point for ';' separating keywords 317 * @see ULOC_KEYWORD_ITEM_SEPARATOR 318 * @stable ICU 4.6 319 */ 320 #define ULOC_KEYWORD_ITEM_SEPARATOR_UNICODE 0x3B 321 322 /** 323 * Constants for *_getLocale() 324 * Allow user to select whether she wants information on 325 * requested, valid or actual locale. 326 * For example, a collator for "en_US_CALIFORNIA" was 327 * requested.
