Описание (Description)
The localedef
program reads the indicated charmap and input
files, compiles them to a binary form quickly usable by the
locale functions in the C library (setlocale(3), localeconv(3),
etc.), and places the output in outputpath.
The outputpath argument is interpreted as follows:
* If outputpath contains a slash character ('/'), it is
interpreted as the name of the directory where the output
definitions are to be stored. In this case, there is a
separate output file for each locale category (LC_TIME,
LC_NUMERIC, and so on).
* If the --no-archive
option is used, outputpath is the name of
a subdirectory in /usr/lib/locale where per-category compiled
files are placed.
* Otherwise, outputpath is the name of a locale and the compiled
locale data is added to the archive file
/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive. A locale archive is a memory-
mapped file which contains all the system-provided locales; it
is used by all localized programs when the environment
variable LOCPATH
is not set.
In any case, localedef
aborts if the directory in which it tries
to write locale files has not already been created.
If no charmapfile is given, the value ANSI_X3.4-1968 (for ASCII)
is used by default. If no inputfile is given, or if it is given
as a dash (-), localedef
reads from standard input.
Параметры (Options)
Operation-selection options
A few options direct localedef
to do something other than compile
locale definitions. Only one of these options should be used at
a time.
--add-to-archive
Add the compiledpath directories to the locale archive
file. The directories should have been created by
previous runs of localedef
, using --no-archive
.
--delete-from-archive
Delete the named locales from the locale archive file.
--list-archive
List the locales contained in the locale archive file.
Other options
Some of the following options are sensible only for certain
operations; generally, it should be self-evident which ones.
Notice that -f
and -c
are reversed from what you might expect;
that is, -f
is not the same as --force
.
-f
charmapfile, --charmap=
charmapfile
Specify the file that defines the character set that is
used by the input file. If charmapfile contains a slash
character ('/'), it is interpreted as the name of the
character map. Otherwise, the file is sought in the
current directory and the default directory for character
maps. If the environment variable I18NPATH
is set,
$I18NPATH/charmaps/ and $I18NPATH/ are also searched after
the current directory. The default directory for
character maps is printed by localedef --help
.
-i
inputfile, --inputfile=
inputfile
Specify the locale definition file to compile. The file
is sought in the current directory and the default
directory for locale definition files. If the environment
variable I18NPATH
is set, $I18NPATH/locales/ and $I18NPATH
are also searched after the current directory. The
default directory for locale definition files is printed
by localedef --help
.
-u
repertoirefile, --repertoire-map=
repertoirefile
Read mappings from symbolic names to Unicode code points
from repertoirefile. If repertoirefile contains a slash
character ('/'), it is interpreted as the pathname of the
repertoire map. Otherwise, the file is sought in the
current directory and the default directory for repertoire
maps. If the environment variable I18NPATH
is set,
$I18NPATH/repertoiremaps/ and $I18NPATH are also searched
after the current directory. The default directory for
repertoire maps is printed by localedef --help
.
-A
aliasfile, --alias-file=
aliasfile
Use aliasfile to look up aliases for locale names. There
is no default aliases file.
-c
, --force
Write the output files even if warnings were generated
about the input file.
-v
, --verbose
Generate extra warnings about errors that are normally
ignored.
--big-endian
Generate big-endian output.
--little-endian
Generate little-endian output.
--no-archive
Do not use the locale archive file, instead create
outputpath as a subdirectory in the same directory as the
locale archive file, and create separate output files for
locale categories in it. This is helpful to prevent
system locale archive updates from overwriting custom
locales created with localedef
.
--no-hard-links
Do not create hard links between installed locales.
--no-warnings=
warnings
Comma-separated list of warnings to disable. Supported
warnings are ascii and intcurrsym.
--posix
Conform strictly to POSIX. Implies --verbose
. This
option currently has no other effect. POSIX conformance
is assumed if the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT
is
set.
--prefix=
pathname
Set the prefix to be prepended to the full archive
pathname. By default, the prefix is empty. Setting the
prefix to foo, the archive would be placed in
foo/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive.
--quiet
Suppress all notifications and warnings, and report only
fatal errors.
--replace
Replace a locale in the locale archive file. Without this
option, if the locale is in the archive file already, an
error occurs.
--warnings=
warnings
Comma-separated list of warnings to enable. Supported
warnings are ascii and intcurrsym.
-?
, --help
Print a usage summary and exit. Also prints the default
paths used by localedef
.
--usage
Print a short usage summary and exit.
-V
, --version
Print the version number, license, and disclaimer of
warranty for localedef
.
Статус выхода (Exit)
One of the following exit values can be returned by localedef
:
0
Command completed successfully.
1
Warnings or errors occurred, output files were written.
4
Errors encountered, no output created.
Окружение (Environment)
POSIXLY_CORRECT
The --posix
flag is assumed if this environment variable
is set.
I18NPATH
A colon-separated list of search directories for files.

Стандарты (Conforming to)
POSIX.1-2008.
Примеры (Examples)
Compile the locale files for Finnish in the UTF-8 character set
and add it to the default locale archive with the name
fi_FI.UTF-8
:
localedef -f UTF-8 -i fi_FI fi_FI.UTF-8
The next example does the same thing, but generates files into
the fi_FI.UTF-8 directory which can then be used by programs when
the environment variable LOCPATH
is set to the current directory
(note that the last argument must contain a slash):
localedef -f UTF-8 -i fi_FI ./fi_FI.UTF-8
