* Assume UTF-8 locale if that string occurs anywhere in nameKarl Williamson2013-08-121-11/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When a platform doesn't have nl_langinfo(), heuristics are employed to see if a locale is UTF-8 . The first heuristic is looking at the return value of setlocale(), which generally is the locale name. However, in actuality the return value is opaque and can't be relied on to signify the locale. Nevertheless if it contains the string UTF-8 (ignoring case, and with the hyphen optional), it is a safe bet that the locale is indeed UTF-8. Prior to this patch, we only looked at the end of the name for "UTF-8". This patch makes it not have to be right-anchored. There are UTF-8 locales on our dromedary machine with UTF-8 in the middle of their names.

* PATCH: [perl #38193] embedded perl always calls setlocale(LC_ALL,"")Karl Williamson2013-07-091-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit causes the locale initialization to skip calling setlocal(foo, "") if the environment variable PERL_SKIP_LOCALE_INIT is set. Instead, the setup code calls setlocale(LC_ALL, NULL) (plus other similar calls for the subcategories) in order to find out what the current locale is. The original poster for this ticket has a workaround for it which involves using a modified copy of Perl core code. This patch defines the C preprocessor variable HAS_SKIP_LOCALE_INIT that can be used by XS writers to discover if the current Perl version needs the workaround or not. I was unable to come up with a test for this patch that did not involve building extensive infrastructure for testing embedded Perl. That does not seem worth it for such a trivial patch. I tested by hand.
* PATCH: [perl #118197] Cope with non-ASCII decimal separatorsKarl Williamson2013-07-071-0/+6
| | | | | | | | This patch causes the radix string to be examined upon a new numeric locale being set. If the string isn't ASCII, and the new locale is UTF-8, it turns on the UTF-8 flag in the scalar that holds the radix. When a floating point number is formatted in Perl_sv_vcatpvfn_flags(), and the flag is on, the result's flag will be set on too.
* locale.c: Further checks for utf8ness of a localeKarl Williamson2013-07-051-0/+154
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In reality, the return value of setlocale() is documented to be opaque, so using it to determine if a locale is UTF-8 or not may not work. It is a char*, which we treat as a name. We can safely assume that if the name contains UTF-8 (or slight variations thereof), that it is a UTF-8 locale. But if the name doesn't contain that, it still could be one. In fact there are currently many locales on our dromedary machine that fall into this category. Similarly, something containing 8859 is not going to be UTF-8. This commit adds another test for cases where there is no nl_langinfo(), and the locale name isn't helpful. It looks at the currency symbol, which typically will be in the locale's script. If that is illegal UTF-8, we know for sure that the locale isn't UTF-8 (or is corrupted). If it is legal UTF-8 (but not ASCII) we can be pretty sure that the locale is UTF-8. If it is ASCII, we still don't know one way or the other, so we err on it not being UTF-8. Originally, I was going to use the locale's error message strings, returned from strerror(), the source for $!, to check for this. These are supposed to be in terms of the LC_MESSAGES locale. Chances are vanishingly small that the locale is not UTF-8 if all the messages pass a utf8ness test, provided that the messages aren't just ASCII. However, on dromedary, the messages for many of the exotic locales haven't been translated, and are still in English, which doesn't help at all. I figure that this is quite likely to be the case generally, and the currency symbol is much more likely to have been translated. I left the code in though, commented out for possible future use. Note that this test will run only on systems that don't have nl_langinfo(). The test can also be turned off by setting a C compiler flag -DNO_LOCALE_MONETARY, (and -DNO_LOCALE_MESSAGES for the commented-out part), corresponding to the way the other categories can be turned off (none of which is documented).
* locale.c: Extract out, fix, expand fcn to see if a locale is utf8Karl Williamson2013-07-051-40/+121
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was buggy code to see if the start-up locale is UTF-8. This commit extracts it into a separate function. The bugs involved looking at the name of the locale to see if that implies a UTF-8 name. Prior to this commit, it looked at the beginning of the locale name, whereas in reality, it is at the end, as in "fr_FR.UTF8". Also, it didn't look for the documented Windows name for UTF-8 locales on those platforms. The function is expanded to have an input category to find the utf8ness of. Thus it now works on any non-LC_ALL category, not just LC_CTYPE. It is possible for categories to be in different locales, so that LC_CTYPE is in a UTF-8 locale, and LC_NUMERIC isn't. For the purposes of PERL_UNICODE, the most applicable category is LC_CTYPE, so that is the one used in its currently only call.
* locale.c: Compare apples to applesKarl Williamson2013-07-051-4/+9

* Change name of ibcmp to foldEQKarl Williamson2010-06-051-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed on p5p, ibcmp has different semantics from other cmp functions in that it is a binary instead of ternary function. It is less confusing then to have a name that implies true/false. There are three functions affected: ibcmp, ibcmp_locale and ibcmp_utf8. ibcmp is actually equivalent to foldNE, but for the same reason that things like 'unless' and 'until' are cautioned against, I changed the functions to foldEQ, so that the existing names, like ibcmp_utf8 are defined as macros as being the complement of foldEQ. This patch also changes the one file where turning ibcmp into a macro causes problems. It changes it to use the new name. It also documents for the first time ibcmp, ibcmp_locale and their new names.
