[PATCH v2] gettext: use libcharset when available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Erik Faye-Lund <kusmabite@xxxxxxxxx>

Change the git_setup_gettext function to use libcharset to query the
character set of the current locale if it's available. I.e. use it
instead of nl_langinfo if HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.

The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.

GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

Since locale_charset returns a const char* instead of char* as
nl_langinfo does the type of the variable we're using to store the
charset in git_setup_gettext has been changed.

Did s/MingW/MinGW/ in the content & message in this v2.
