localeconv(3) Library Functions Manual localeconv(3)
localeconv - get numeric formatting information
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <locale.h>
struct lconv *localeconv(void);
The localeconv() function returns a pointer to a struct lconv for
the current locale. This structure is shown in locale(7), and
contains all values associated with the locale categories
LC_NUMERIC and LC_MONETARY. Programs may also use the functions
printf(3) and strfmon(3), which behave according to the actual
locale in use.
The localeconv() function returns a pointer to a filled in struct
lconv. This structure may be (in glibc, is) statically
allocated, and may be overwritten by subsequent calls. According
to POSIX, the caller should not modify the contents of this
structure. The localeconv() function always succeeds.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
attributes(7).
