locale_config

Remembers locale configuration per-thread and per-process and initializes the values by inspecting the system for user preferences.

Installation

You can depend on this library by adding locale_config to your Cargo dependencies:

[dependencies]
locale_config = "*"

Usually it is not recommended to depend on *, but in this case it is important that incompatible version requirements don't cause multiple versions to be pulled in the final binary, so I do recommend it here and promise I will maintain good compatibility. Just please don't add traits to the types defined here to avoid conflicts with potential future methods.

Using

Usually you want to use this indirectly via a localization crate like locale. However if you need to work with the identifier itself, or you need to override it, use

Locale::current()

to find what you should be using at any given point in the application,

Locale::set_current()

to override it for current thread and

Locale::set_global_default()

to override it for new threads.

In case you need to access the initial value, you'll find it under

Locale::user_default()
