P<strong>OS</strong>IX.2, <strong>UNIX</strong> <strong>System</strong> V.<br />

localedef — Define the locale environment<br />

Format<br />

Description<br />

Options<br />

localedef [–c] [–f charmap] [–i sourcefile] [–m methodfile] [–w] [–A] [–L<br />

binderoptions] [–X] [–6] name<br />

localedef converts source definitions for locale categories into a format usable by<br />

functions and utilities.<br />

localedef, which is installed as part of z/<strong>OS</strong> Language Environment, utilizes c89,<br />

which is installed as part of z/<strong>OS</strong> C/C++ Run-Time Library Extensions.<br />

c89 requires the installation of the C/C++ optional feature of z/<strong>OS</strong> (which provides<br />

among other things a C compiler).<br />

See z/<strong>OS</strong> Introduction and Release Guide for further details.<br />

A TSO/E utility called LOCALDEF is installed as part of z/<strong>OS</strong> Language<br />

Environment.<br />

v It is not supported by the z/<strong>OS</strong> shell; for more information see z/<strong>OS</strong> XL C/C++<br />

User’s Guide.<br />

v The TSO/E BATCH versions of the utility do not support ASCII (-A) nor<br />

AMODE-64 (-6) options.<br />

For information about the charmap file and locale definition source file formats see<br />

z/<strong>OS</strong> XL C/C++ Programming Guide.<br />

–c Creates permanent output even if there were warning messages. Normally,<br />

localedef does not create permanent output when it has issued warning<br />

messages.<br />

–f charmap<br />

Specifies a charmap file that contains a mapping of character symbols and<br />

collating element symbols to actual character encodings.<br />

–i sourcefile<br />

Specifies the file that contains the source definitions. If there is no –i,<br />

localedef reads the source definitions from the standard input.<br />

–m methodfile<br />

Specifies the name of a method file that describes the methods to be<br />

overridden when constructing a locale. localedef reads the method file and<br />

uses entry points when constructing the locale objects. The code set<br />

methods specified are also used in parsing the file pointed to by the<br />

CharMap variable. This requires that you provide the overriding methods in<br />

a DLL which is explicitly loaded by localedef before processing the<br />
