      • setlocale

        public static java.lang.String setlocale(int category,
                                                 java.nio.ByteBuffer locale)
        
        public static java.lang.String setlocale(int category,
                                                 java.lang.CharSequence locale)
        
        Gets and sets the current C locale.

        The setlocale function installs the specified system locale or its portion as the new C locale. The modifications remain in effect and influences the execution of all locale-sensitive C library functions until the next call to setlocale. If locale is a null pointer, setlocale queries the current C locale without modifying it.

        Parameters:
        category - the locale category identifier, may by null. One of:
        LibCLocale.LC_ALLLibCLocale.LC_COLLATELibCLocale.LC_CTYPELibCLocale.LC_MONETARYLibCLocale.LC_NUMERICLibCLocale.LC_TIME
        locale - system-specific locale identifier. Can be "" for the user-preferred locale or "C" for the minimal locale.
        Returns:
        a pointer to a narrow null-terminated string identifying the C locale after applying the changes, if any, or null pointer on failure.

        A copy of the returned string along with the category used in this call to setlocale may be used later in the program to restore the locale back to the state at the end of this call.
