NAME¶
XtSetLanguageProc - set the language procedure
SYNTAX¶
Widget
XtSetLanguageProc(XtAppContext app_context, XtLanguageProc proc,
XtPointer client_data);
ARGUMENTS¶
- app_context
- Specifies the application context in which the language
procedure is to be used, or NULL.
- proc
- Specifies the language procedure, or NULL.
- client_data
- Specifies additional client data to be passed to the
language procedure when it is called.
DESCRIPTION¶
XtSetLanguageProc sets the language procedure that will be called from
XtDisplayInitialize for all subsequent Displays initialized in the
specified application context. If
app_context is NULL, the specified
language procedure is registered in all application contexts created by the
calling process, including any future application contexts that may be
created. If
proc is NULL a default language procedure is registered.
XtSetLanguageProc returns the previously registered language procedure.
If a language procedure has not yet been registered, the return value is
unspecified but if this return value is used in a subsequent call to
XtSetLanguageProc, it will cause the default language procedure to be
registered.
The default language procedure does the following:
- •
- Sets the locale according to the environment. On ANSI
C-based systems this is done by calling setlocale( LC_ALL,
language ). If an error is encountered a warning message is issued with
XtWarning.
- •
- Calls XSupportsLocale to verify that the current
locale is supported. If the locale is not supported, a warning message is
issued with XtWarning and the locale is set to ``C''.
- •
- Calls XSetLocaleModifiers specifying the empty
string.
- •
- Returns the value of the current locale. On ANSI C-based
systems this is the return value from a final call to setlocale(
LC_ALL, NULL ).
A client wishing to use this mechanism to establish locale can do so by calling
XtSetLanguageProc prior to
XtDisplayInitialize.
