NE_I18N_INIT(3) neon API reference NE_I18N_INIT(3)

NAME

ne_i18n_init - functions to initialize internationalization support

SYNOPSIS

#include <ne_i18n.h>

void ne_i18n_init(const char *encoding);

DESCRIPTION

The ne_i18n_init function can be used to enable support for
translated messages in the neon library. The encoding parameter, if
non-NULL, specifies the character encoding required for generated
translated string. If it is NULL, the appropriate character encoding
for the process locale will be used.

This call is only strictly necessary if either:

1. neon has been installed into a different prefix than the gettext
implementation on which it depends for i18n purposes, or

2. the caller requires that translated messages are in a particular
character encoding.

If ne_i18n_init is never called, the message catalogs will not be
found if case (a) applies (and so English error messages will be
used), and will use the default character encoding specified by the
process locale. The library will otherwise operate correctly.

Note that the encoding used is a process-global setting and so
results may be unexpected if other users of neon within the process
call ne_i18n_init with a different encoding parameter.
