31  * \brief  C API: Locale
32  *
33  * <h2> ULoc C API for Locale </h2>
34  * A <code>Locale</code> represents a specific geographical, political,
35  * or cultural region. An operation that requires a <code>Locale</code> to perform
36  * its task is called <em>locale-sensitive</em> and uses the <code>Locale</code>
37  * to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number
38  * is a locale-sensitive operation--the number should be formatted
39  * according to the customs/conventions of the user's native country,
40  * region, or culture.  In the C APIs, a locales is simply a const char string.
41  *
42  * <P>
43  * You create a <code>Locale</code> with one of the three options listed below.
44  * Each of the component is separated by '_' in the locale string.
45  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
46  * <pre>
47  * \code
48  *       newLanguage
49  *
50  *       newLanguage + newCountry
51  *
52  *       newLanguage + newCountry + newVariant
53  * \endcode
54  * </pre>
55  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
56  * The first option is a valid <STRONG>ISO
57  * Language Code.</STRONG> These codes are the lower-case two-letter
58  * codes as defined by ISO-639.
59  * You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as:
60  * <BR><a href ="http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt">
61  * http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt</a>
62  *
63  * <P>
64  * The second option includes an additional <STRONG>ISO Country
65  * Code.</STRONG> These codes are the upper-case two-letter codes
66  * as defined by ISO-3166.
67  * You can find a full list of these codes at a number of sites, such as:
68  * <BR><a href="http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html">
69  * http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html</a>
70  *
71  * <P>
72  * The third option requires another additional information--the
73  * <STRONG>Variant.</STRONG>
74  * The Variant codes are vendor and browser-specific.
75  * For example, use WIN for Windows, MAC for Macintosh, and POSIX for POSIX.
76  * Where there are two variants, separate them with an underscore, and
77  * put the most important one first. For
78  * example, a Traditional Spanish collation might be referenced, with
79  * "ES", "ES", "Traditional_WIN".
80  *
81  * <P>
82  * Because a <code>Locale</code> is just an identifier for a region,
83  * no validity check is performed when you specify a <code>Locale</code>.
84  * If you want to see whether particular resources are available for the
85  * <code>Locale</code> you asked for, you must query those resources. For
86  * example, ask the <code>UNumberFormat</code> for the locales it supports
87  * using its <code>getAvailable</code> method.
88  * <BR><STRONG>Note:</STRONG> When you ask for a resource for a particular
89  * locale, you get back the best available match, not necessarily
90  * precisely what you asked for. For more information, look at
91  * <code>UResourceBundle</code>.
92  *
93  * <P>
94  * The <code>Locale</code> provides a number of convenient constants
95  * that you can use to specify the commonly used
96  * locales. For example, the following refers to a locale
97  * for the United States:
98  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
99  * <pre>
100  * \code
101  *       ULOC_US
102  * \endcode
103  * </pre>
104  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
105  *
106  * <P>
107  * Once you've specified a locale you can query it for information about
108  * itself. Use <code>uloc_getCountry</code> to get the ISO Country Code and
109  * <code>uloc_getLanguage</code> to get the ISO Language Code. You can
110  * use <code>uloc_getDisplayCountry</code> to get the
111  * name of the country suitable for displaying to the user. Similarly,
112  * you can use <code>uloc_getDisplayLanguage</code> to get the name of
113  * the language suitable for displaying to the user. Interestingly,
114  * the <code>uloc_getDisplayXXX</code> methods are themselves locale-sensitive
115  * and have two versions: one that uses the default locale and one
116  * that takes a locale as an argument and displays the name or country in
117  * a language appropriate to that locale.
118  *
119  * <P>
120  * The ICU provides a number of services that perform locale-sensitive
121  * operations. For example, the <code>unum_xxx</code> functions format
122  * numbers, currency, or percentages in a locale-sensitive manner.
123  * </P>
124  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
125  * <pre>
126  * \code
127  *     UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
128  *     UNumberFormat *nf;
129  *     const char* myLocale = "fr_FR";
130  *
131  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_DEFAULT, NULL, success );
132  *     unum_close(nf);
133  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_CURRENCY, NULL, success );
134  *     unum_close(nf);
135  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_PERCENT, NULL, success );
136  *     unum_close(nf);
137  * \endcode
138  * </pre>
139  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
140  * Each of these methods has two variants; one with an explicit locale
141  * and one without; the latter using the default locale.
142  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
143  * <pre>
144  * \code
145  *
146  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_DEFAULT, myLocale, success );
147  *     unum_close(nf);
148  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_CURRENCY, myLocale, success );
149  *     unum_close(nf);
150  *     nf = unum_open( UNUM_PERCENT, myLocale, success );
151  *     unum_close(nf);
152  * \endcode
153  * </pre>
154  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
155  * A <code>Locale</code> is the mechanism for identifying the kind of services
156  * (<code>UNumberFormat</code>) that you would like to get. The locale is
157  * <STRONG>just</STRONG> a mechanism for identifying these services.
158  *
159  * <P>
160  * Each international service that performs locale-sensitive operations
161  * allows you
162  * to get all the available objects of that type. You can sift
163  * through these objects by language, country, or variant,
164  * and use the display names to present a menu to the user.
165  * For example, you can create a menu of all the collation objects
166  * suitable for a given language. Such classes implement these
167  * three class methods:
168  * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
169  * <pre>
170  * \code
171  *       const char* uloc_getAvailable(int32_t index);
172  *       int32_t uloc_countAvailable();
173  *       int32_t
174  *       uloc_getDisplayName(const char* localeID,
175  *                 const char* inLocaleID,
176  *                 UChar* result,
177  *                 int32_t maxResultSize,
178  *                  UErrorCode* err);
179  *
180  * \endcode
181  * </pre>
182  * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
183  * <P>
184  * Concerning POSIX/RFC1766 Locale IDs,
185  *  the getLanguage/getCountry/getVariant/getName functions do understand
186  * the POSIX type form of  language_COUNTRY.ENCODING\@VARIANT
187  * and if there is not an ICU-stype variant, uloc_getVariant() for example
188  * will return the one listed after the \@at sign. As well, the hyphen
189  * "-" is recognized as a country/variant separator similarly to RFC1766.
190  * So for example, "en-us" will be interpreted as en_US.
191  * As a result, uloc_getName() is far from a no-op, and will have the
192  * effect of converting POSIX/RFC1766 IDs into ICU form, although it does
193  * NOT map any of the actual codes (i.e. russian->ru) in any way.
194  * Applications should call uloc_getName() at the point where a locale ID
195  * is coming from an external source (user entry, OS, web browser)
196  * and pass the resulting string to other ICU functions.  For example,
197  * don't use de-de\@EURO as an argument to resourcebundle.
