| <h2>SYNOPSIS |
| <a name="SYNOPSIS"></a> |
| </h2> |
|
|
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>#include |
| <libintl.h></b></p> |
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>char * |
| bind_textdomain_codeset (const char *</b> |
| <i>domainname</i><b>, <br> |
| const char *</b> <i>codeset</i><b>);</b></p> |
|
|
| <h2>DESCRIPTION |
| <a name="DESCRIPTION"></a> |
| </h2> |
|
|
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The |
| <b>bind_textdomain_codeset</b> function sets the output |
| codeset for message catalogs for domain |
| <i>domainname</i>.</p> |
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">A message |
| domain is a set of translatable <i>msgid</i> messages. |
| Usually, every software package has its own message |
| domain.</p> |
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">By default, the |
| <b>gettext</b> family of functions returns translated |
| messages in the locale’s character encoding, which can |
| be retrieved as <b>nl_langinfo (CODESET)</b>. The need for |
| calling <b>bind_textdomain_codeset</b> arises for programs |
| which store strings in a locale independent way (e.g. UTF-8) |
| and want to avoid an extra character set conversion on the |
| returned translated messages.</p> |
|
|
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><i>domainname</i> |
| must be a non-empty string.</p> |
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If |
| <i>codeset</i> is not NULL, it must be a valid encoding name |
| which can be used for the <b>iconv_open</b> function. The |
| <b>bind_textdomain_codeset</b> function sets the output |
| codeset for message catalogs belonging to domain |
| <i>domainname</i> to <i>codeset</i>. The function makes |
| copies of the argument strings as needed.</p> |
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If |
| <i>codeset</i> is NULL, the function returns the previously |
| set codeset for domain <i>domainname</i>. The default is |
| NULL, denoting the locale’s character encoding.</p> |
|
|
| <h2>RETURN VALUE |
| <a name="RETURN VALUE"></a> |
| </h2> |
|
|
|
|
| <p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If successful, |
| the <b>bind_textdomain_codeset</b> function returns the |
| current codeset for domain <i>domainname</i>, after possibly |
| changing it. The resulting string is valid until the next |
| <b>bind_textdomain_codeset</b> call for the same |
| <i>domainname</i> and must not be modified or freed. If a |
| memory allocation failure occurs, it sets <b>errno</b> to |
| <b>ENOMEM</b> and returns NULL. If no codeset has been set |
| for domain <i>domainname</i>, it returns NULL.</p> |
