C++
 
Localization library
 
Defined in header <clocale>
#define LC_ALL      /* implementation defined */
#define LC_COLLATE  /* implementation defined */
#define LC_CTYPE    /* implementation defined */
#define LC_MONETARY /* implementation defined */
#define LC_NUMERIC  /* implementation defined */
#define LC_TIME     /* implementation defined */

Each of the above macro constants expand to integer constant expressions with distinct values that are suitable for use as the first argument of std::setlocale.

Constant Explanation
LC_ALL selects the entire C locale
LC_COLLATE selects the collation category of the C locale
LC_CTYPE selects the character classification category of the C locale
LC_MONETARY selects the monetary formatting category of the C locale
LC_NUMERIC selects the numeric formatting category of the C locale
LC_TIME selects the time formatting category of the C locale

Additional macro constants, with names that begin with LC_ followed by at least one uppercase letter, may be defined in <clocale>. For example, the POSIX specification requires LC_MESSAGES (which controls std::perror and std::strerror), ISO/IEC 30112:2014 (2014 draft) additionally defines LC_IDENTIFICATION, LC_XLITERATE, LC_NAME, LC_ADDRESS, LC_TELEPHONE, LC_PAPER, LC_MEASUREMENT, and LC_KEYBOARD, which are supported by the GNU C library (except for LC_XLITERATE).

[edit] Example

Run this code
#include <clocale>
#include <cstdio>
#include <ctime>
#include <cwchar>
 
int main()
{
    // the C locale will be the UTF-8 enabled English:
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.UTF-8");
 
    // decimal dot will be German:
    std::setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "de_DE.UTF-8");
 
    // date/time formatting will be Japanese:
    std::setlocale(LC_TIME, "ja_JP.UTF-8");
 
    wchar_t str[100];
    std::time_t t = std::time(nullptr);
    std::wcsftime(str, 100, L"%A %c", std::localtime(&t));
    std::wprintf(L"Number: %.2f\nDate: %Ls\n", 3.14, str);
}

Output:
