Headers langinfo.h(3HEAD)
If the locale's values for pcsprecedes and ncsprecedes
do not match, the value of nllanginfo(CRNCYSTR) is unspeci-
fied.
The header declares the following as a func-
tion:
char *nllanginfo(nlitem);
Inclusion of header may also make visible all
symbols from .
USAGE
Wherever possible, users are advised to use functions compa-
tible with those in the ISO C standard to access items of
langinfo data. In particular, the strftime(3C) function
should be used to access date and time information defined
in category LCTIME. The localeconv(3C) function should be
used to access information corresponding to RADIXCHAR,
THOUSEP, and CRNCYSTR.
