Re: Supported Locales

[Jeffrey Holle]

The question that you ask is also somemthing that I wish to know.
One possible enlightment is typing 'locale -a' at a linux command line.
This prints a lot of options.

The results could be correct in that my LANG enviroment variable is 
"en_US", which is the approbriate selection for myself of the above options.

However, I've presently found no evidence that gcc 3.2 supports I18N 
functionality.

My research in this area is limited to:
   # include <iostream>
   using namespace std;
   int main(void)
   {    
      try {
         cout.imbue(locale("deutsch"));
         cout << 19.99 << '\t' << fixed << 1000000 << endl;
      } catch (...) {
         cerr << "Caught exception" << endl;
      }
   }

The good news is this compiles.  However:
This should print:
   19,99        1.000.000
but it prints:
   19.99        1000000

Another thing I've noted is that one can place anything one wishes 
instead of "deutsch" without incuring an exception, or any other error. 
 So the positive feedback that my coding attempted to provide is quite 
needed to draw any conclusions...
