23 /* utility functions for handling locale-specific stuff like what
24 * character represents the decimal point.
26 * All C programs have an underlying locale. Perl code generally doesn't pay
27 * any attention to it except within the scope of a 'use locale'. For most
28 * categories, it accomplishes this by just using different operations if it is
29 * in such scope than if not. However, various libc functions called by Perl
30 * are affected by the LC_NUMERIC category, so there are macros in perl.h that
31 * are used to toggle between the current locale and the C locale depending on
32 * the desired behavior of those functions at the moment. And, LC_MESSAGES is
33 * switched to the C locale for outputting the message unless within the scope
36 * This code now has multi-thread-safe locale handling on systems that support
37 * that. This is completely transparent to most XS code. On earlier systems,
38 * it would be possible to emulate thread-safe locales, but this likely would
39 * involve a lot of locale switching, and would require XS code changes.
40 * Macros could be written so that the code wouldn't have to know which type of
41 * system is being used. It's unlikely that we would ever do that, since most
42 * modern systems support thread-safe locales, but there was code written to
43 * this end, and is retained, #ifdef'd out.

520 * can be overwritten by other system calls, so needs to be copied
521 * immediately if you need to retain it. The difference here is that
522 * system calls besides another setlocale() can overwrite it.
524 * By doing this, most locale-sensitive functions become thread-safe. The

527 * This function takes the same parameters, 'category' and 'locale', that
528 * the regular setlocale() function does, but it also takes two additional
529 * ones. This is because the 2008 functions don't use a category; instead
530 * they use a corresponding mask. Because this function operates in both

532 * calculate the mask from the input category, but to avoid this

534 * can pass it, setting 'is_index_valid' to TRUE; otherwise the mask

537 * POSIX 2008, for some sick reason, chose not to provide a method to find

541 * track of what the locale has been set to, so that we can return its

543 * library to change the locale without us knowing it, though as of
544 * September 2017, there are no occurrences in CPAN of uselocale(). Some
545 * libraries do use setlocale(), but that changes the global locale, and
546 * threads using per-thread locales will just ignore those changes.
547 * Another problem is that without querylocale(), we have to guess at what
548 * was meant by setting a locale of "". We handle this by not actually
549 * ever setting to "" (unless querylocale exists), but to emulate what we

1977 * are C strings, only the terminating one can be a NUL (some
1978 * implementations may include a non-NUL separator weight just before
1979 * the NUL). Implementations tend to reserve 01 for the separator
1980 * weights. They are needed so that a shorter string's secondary
1981 * weights won't be misconstrued as primary weights of a longer string,
1982 * etc. By making them smaller than any other weight, the shorter
1983 * string will sort first. (Actually, if all secondary weights are
1984 * smaller than all primary ones, there is no need for a separator
1985 * weight between those two levels, etc.)
1987 * The length of the transformed string is roughly a linear function of
1988 * the input string. It's not exactly linear because some characters
1989 * don't have weights at all levels. When we call strxfrm() we have to
1990 * allocate some memory to hold the transformed string. The
1991 * calculations below try to find coefficients 'm' and 'b' for this
1992 * locale so that m*x + b equals how much space we need, given the size
1993 * of the input string in 'x'. If we calculate too small, we increase

2287 taking the same parameters, and returning the same information, except that it
2288 returns the correct underlying C<LC_NUMERIC> locale. Regular C<setlocale> will
2289 instead return C<C> if the underlying locale has a non-dot decimal point
2290 character, or a non-empty thousands separator for displaying floating point
2291 numbers. This is because perl keeps that locale category such that it has a
2292 dot and empty separator, changing the locale briefly during the operations
2293 where the underlying one is required. C<Perl_setlocale> knows about this, and
2294 compensates; regular C<setlocale> doesn't.
2296 Another reason it isn't completely a drop-in replacement is that it is
2297 declared to return S<C<const char *>>, whereas the system setlocale omits the
2298 C<const> (presumably because its API was specified long ago, and can't be
2299 updated; it is illegal to change the information C<setlocale> returns; doing
2300 so leads to segfaults.)
2302 Finally, C<Perl_setlocale> works under all circumstances, whereas plain
2303 C<setlocale> can be completely ineffective on some platforms under some
2306 C<Perl_setlocale> should not be used to change the locale except on systems
2307 where the predefined variable C<${^SAFE_LOCALES}> is 1. On some such systems,
2308 the system C<setlocale()> is ineffective, returning the wrong information, and
2309 failing to actually change the locale. C<Perl_setlocale>, however works
2310 properly in all circumstances.
2312 The return points to a per-thread static buffer, which is overwritten the next
2313 time C<Perl_setlocale> is called from the same thread.

2491 =for apidoc Perl_langinfo
2493 This is an (almost) drop-in replacement for the system C<L<nl_langinfo(3)>>,
2494 taking the same C<item> parameter values, and returning the same information.
2495 But it is more thread-safe than regular C<nl_langinfo()>, and hides the quirks
2496 of Perl's locale handling from your code, and can be used on systems that lack
2497 a native C<nl_langinfo>.
2505 The reason it isn't quite a drop-in replacement is actually an advantage. The
2506 only difference is that it returns S<C<const char *>>, whereas plain
2507 C<nl_langinfo()> returns S<C<char *>>, but you are (only by documentation)
2508 forbidden to write into the buffer. By declaring this C<const>, the compiler
2509 enforces this restriction, so if it is violated, you know at compilation time,
2510 rather than getting segfaults at runtime.
2514 It delivers the correct results for the C<RADIXCHAR> and C<THOUSEP> items,
2515 without you having to write extra code. The reason for the extra code would be
2516 because these are from the C<LC_NUMERIC> locale category, which is normally
2517 kept set by Perl so that the radix is a dot, and the separator is the empty
2518 string, no matter what the underlying locale is supposed to be, and so to get
2519 the expected results, you have to temporarily toggle into the underlying
2520 locale, and later toggle back. (You could use plain C<nl_langinfo> and
2521 C<L</STORE_LC_NUMERIC_FORCE_TO_UNDERLYING>> for this but then you wouldn't get
2522 the other advantages of C<Perl_langinfo()>; not keeping C<LC_NUMERIC> in the C
2523 (or equivalent) locale would break a lot of CPAN, which is expecting the radix
2524 (decimal point) character to be a dot.)
2528 The system function it replaces can have its static return buffer trashed,
2529 not only by a subsequent call to that function, but by a C<freelocale>,
2530 C<setlocale>, or other locale change. The returned buffer of this function is
2531 not changed until the next call to it, so the buffer is never in a trashed
2536 Its return buffer is per-thread, so it also is never overwritten by a call to
2537 this function from another thread; unlike the function it replaces.
2541 But most importantly, it works on systems that don't have C<nl_langinfo>, such
2542 as Windows, hence makes your code more portable. Of the fifty-some possible
2543 items specified by the POSIX 2008 standard,
2544 L<http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/langinfo.h.html>,
2545 only one is completely unimplemented, though on non-Windows platforms, another
2546 significant one is also not implemented). It uses various techniques to
2547 recover the other items, including calling C<L<localeconv(3)>>, and
2548 C<L<strftime(3)>>, both of which are specified in C89, so should be always be
2549 available. Later C<strftime()> versions have additional capabilities; C<""> is
2550 returned for those not available on your system.
2552 It is important to note that when called with an item that is recovered by
2553 using C<localeconv>, the buffer from any previous explicit call to
2554 C<localeconv> will be overwritten. This means you must save that buffer's
2555 contents if you need to access them after a call to this function. (But note
2556 that you might not want to be using C<localeconv()> directly anyway, because of
2557 issues like the ones listed in the second item of this list (above) for
2558 C<RADIXCHAR> and C<THOUSEP>. You can use the methods given in L<perlcall> to
2559 call L<POSIX/localeconv> and avoid all the issues, but then you have a hash to
2562 The details for those items which may deviate from what this emulation returns
2563 and what a native C<nl_langinfo()> would return are specified in
2568 When using C<Perl_langinfo> on systems that don't have a native
2569 C<nl_langinfo()>, you must
2571 #include "perl_langinfo.h"
2573 before the C<perl.h> C<#include>. You can replace your C<langinfo.h>
2574 C<#include> with this one. (Doing it this way keeps out the symbols that plain
2575 C<langinfo.h> would try to import into the namespace for code that doesn't need
2578 The original impetus for C<Perl_langinfo()> was so that code that needs to
2579 find out the current currency symbol, floating point radix character, or digit
2580 grouping separator can use, on all systems, the simpler and more
2581 thread-friendly C<nl_langinfo> API instead of C<L<localeconv(3)>> which is a
2582 pain to make thread-friendly. For other fields returned by C<localeconv>, it
2583 is better to use the methods given in L<perlcall> to call
2584 L<C<POSIX::localeconv()>|POSIX/localeconv>, which is thread-friendly.

3274 * This looks more complicated than it is, mainly due to the #ifdefs.
3276 * We try to set LC_ALL to the value determined by the environment. If
3277 * there is no LC_ALL on this platform, we try the individual categories we
3278 * know about. If this works, we are done.
3280 * But if it doesn't work, we have to do something else. We search the
3281 * environment variables ourselves instead of relying on the system to do
3282 * it. We look at, in order, LC_ALL, LANG, a system default locale (if we
3283 * think there is one), and the ultimate fallback "C". This is all done in
3284 * the same loop as above to avoid duplicating code, but it makes things
3285 * more complex. The 'trial_locales' array is initialized with just one
3286 * element; it causes the behavior described in the paragraph above this to
3287 * happen. If that fails, we add elements to 'trial_locales', and do extra
3288 * loop iterations to cause the behavior described in this paragraph.
3290 * On Ultrix, the locale MUST come from the environment, so there is
3291 * preliminary code to set it. I (khw) am not sure that it is necessary,
3292 * and that this couldn't be folded into the loop, but barring any real
3293 * platforms to test on, it's staying as-is
3295 * A slight complication is that in embedded Perls, the locale may already
3296 * be set-up, and we don't want to get it from the normal environment
3297 * variables. This is handled by having a special environment variable
3298 * indicate we're in this situation. We simply set setlocale's 2nd
3299 * parameter to be a NULL instead of "". That indicates to setlocale that
3300 * it is not to change anything, but to return the current value,
3301 * effectively initializing perl's db to what the locale already is.
3303 * We play the same trick with NULL if a LC_ALL succeeds. We call
3304 * setlocale() on the individual categores with NULL to get their existing

5421 On systems without locale support, or on typical single-threaded builds, or on
5422 platforms that do not support per-thread locale operations, this function does
5423 nothing. On such systems that do have locale support, only a locale global to
5424 the whole program is available.
5426 On multi-threaded builds on systems that do have per-thread locale operations,
5427 this function converts the thread it is running in to use the global locale.
5428 This is for code that has not yet or cannot be updated to handle multi-threaded
5429 locale operation. As long as only a single thread is so-converted, everything
5430 works fine, as all the other threads continue to ignore the global one, so only
5431 this thread looks at it.
5433 However, on Windows systems this isn't quite true prior to Visual Studio 15,
5434 at which point Microsoft fixed a bug. A race can occur if you use the
5435 following operations on earlier Windows platforms:
5439 =item L<POSIX::localeconv|POSIX/localeconv>
5441 =item L<I18N::Langinfo>, items C<CRNCYSTR> and C<THOUSEP>
5443 =item L<perlapi/Perl_langinfo>, items C<CRNCYSTR> and C<THOUSEP>
5447 The first item is not fixable (except by upgrading to a later Visual Studio
5448 release), but it would be possible to work around the latter two items by using
5449 the Windows API functions C<GetNumberFormat> and C<GetCurrencyFormat>; patches
5452 Without this function call, threads that use the L<C<setlocale(3)>> system
5453 function will not work properly, as all the locale-sensitive functions will
5454 look at the per-thread locale, and C<setlocale> will have no effect on this
5457 Perl code should convert to either call
5458 L<C<Perl_setlocale>|perlapi/Perl_setlocale> (which is a drop-in for the system
5459 C<setlocale>) or use the methods given in L<perlcall> to call
5460 L<C<POSIX::setlocale>|POSIX/setlocale>. Either one will transparently properly
5461 handle all cases of single- vs multi-thread, POSIX 2008-supported or not.
5463 Non-Perl libraries, such as C<gtk>, that call the system C<setlocale> can
5464 continue to work if this function is called before transferring control to the
5467 Upon return from the code that needs to use the global locale,
5468 L<C<sync_locale()>|perlapi/sync_locale> should be called to restore the safe
5469 multi-thread operation.

5513 multi-threaded systems that don't have multi-thread safe locale operations.
5514 (See L<perllocale/Multi-threaded operation>). Using the system
5515 L<C<setlocale(3)>> should be avoided. Nevertheless, certain non-Perl libraries
5516 called from XS, such as C<Gtk> do so, and this can't be changed. When the
5517 locale is changed by XS code that didn't use
5518 L<C<Perl_setlocale>|perlapi/Perl_setlocale>, Perl needs to be told that the
5519 locale has changed. Use this function to do so, before returning to Perl.
5521 The return value is a boolean: TRUE if the global locale at the time of call
5522 was in effect; and FALSE if a per-thread locale was in effect. This can be
5523 used by the caller that needs to restore things as-they-were to decide whether
