There is some confusion about the format of numeral fields;
|
|
|
|
|
it seems to me it is field dependant, as fields
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOCALE_ILANGUAGE and LOCALE_IDEFAULTLANGUAGE use hexadecimal,
|
|
|
|
|
while LOCALE_ICOUNTRY, LOCALE_IDEFAULTCOUNTRY, LOCALE_IDEFAULTCODEPAGE
|
|
|
|
|
and LOCALE_IDEFAULTANSICODEPAGE use decimal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'll appreciate info on the others numeric fields; and a confirmation
|
|
|
|
|
about the numeric fields I told above.

For the alphanumeric fields the encoding used is the one used by MS-Windows
|
|
|
|
|
for that language (the one in LOCALE_IDEFAULTANSICODEPAGE).

Here is how I completed some fields:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* month/weekdays names: from the locales definitions of glibc and Java.
|
|
|
|
|
* native monetary symbol: from the locales definitions of glibc.
|
|
|
|
|
* monetary international symbols: from documents of my bank :)
|
|
|
|
|
* DOS code page: from MS-DOS manuals, and some notes from IBM PC-DOS Y2K update
|
|
|
|
|
* Windows code page: from Wine definitions of cp125[1234567]
|
|
|
|
|
* Country abbreviation: From iso 3 letters country codes
|
|
|
|
|
* Country Number: it seems to be the country code used for telephone nubers
|
|
|
|
|
(maybe Windows use it for PPP dialers etc ?)
|
|
|
|
|
* Language abbreviation: it is the iso 2 letter language code + a third
|
|
|
|
|
letter to identify the country.
|
|
|
|
|
* Language number: from the include files (*.h) of the FreeType librairies
|
|
|
|
|
(freetype is a library to manipulate True Type fonts, and those TTF
|
|
|
|
|
have several strings telling copyright, face name, etc; the strings
|
|
|
|
|
can be in several languages and for Microsoft platforms the Windows
|
|
|
|
|
language code numbers are used to identify language).
|
|
|
|
|
Look at ole/ole2nls.c for a comprehensive list of language code
|
|
|
|
|
numbers and iso 2 letters names.
|
|
|
|
|
* Calendar type: I have not info on it, but I guess it is to identify
|
|
|
|
|
if the calendar is a gregorian one, or another (eg arabic traditional,
|
|
|
|
|
etc). As I have, for months names etc, only info on gragorian
|
|
|
|
|
calendars I set it to "1" for all files, as it seems to indicate
|
|
|
|
|
a gregorian calendar.
