I have GTK program that has support for gettext l10n and it is working great in Linux. But I want to port it to Windows. I need to set gtk locale based on user settings (ignoring "regional settings" in windows). I have following dirs: $prefix\lang\de_DE\LC_MESSAGES\app.mo $prefix\lang\sr_YU\LC_MESSAGES\app.mo $prefix\lang\...\LC_MESSAGES\app.mo where $prefix is someting like "C:\Program Files\app\" and it is taken from windows registry - so at runtime I have full path as a char pointer. I keep user language preferences as a string (char *) in database so I also have "de_DE" at runtime. Then I load it like this: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. int main() { ... #ifdef ENABLE_NLS /* langpath is char * langpath = "$prefix\lang\" at this point */ bindtextdomain (GETTEXT_PACKAGE, (char*) langpath); bind_textdomain_codeset (GETTEXT_PACKAGE, "UTF-8"); textdomain (GETTEXT_PACKAGE); #endif ... /* locale is char * locale = "de_DE" at this point */ setlocale(LC_ALL,locale); gtk_disable_setlocale(); g_free(locale); // gtk init, gtk main and so on.. } <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< In Linux all works great. This code selectes GTK/App locale based on user settings (locale var). But in Windows setlocale(LC_ALL, locale) returns NULL and locale is not selected! But, GTK locale is selected based on "regional settings" in Windows - Serbian in mine case. How can I load GTK/application locale in Windows, and is the "de_DE" right value for German locale to be passed to setlocale()?
