SETLOCALENAME Command
SECTION Command Example
The following source file has two sections: SALES-FILES and EMPLOYEE-FILES.
Note that the EMPLOYEE-FILES section is made up of two portions of the source
schema separated by the SALES-FILES section.
SETLOCALENAME Command
The SETLOCALENAME command specifies the language, territory, and character set
for output of text items. When a programming language file is generated, the value
associated with the specified locale will be output for each text item.
locale-name
specifies a language, territory, and character set for a text item. If not specified, the
default system locale is used. See Section 6, Definition Attributes, for complete
information on specifying locales.
SETLOCALENAME Command Guidelines
The following points are guidelines for using the SETLOCALENAME command:
•
If multiple SETLOCALENAME commands are issued, the last one issued is
in effect.
•
The SETLOCALENAME command can be set anytime. Different locales can be
used when generating a programming language source program.
•
If there is not a text item with a locale name that matches the one given in the
SETLOCALENAME command, an error occurs.
•
If there is more than one literal specified with the same locale name for a text item,
an error occurs. The literal with the duplicate locale name is ignored.
