 Name

    localeconv - get lconv structure pointer

 Syntax


    cc  . . .  -lc


    #include <locale.h>

    struct lconv *localeconv ()


 Description

    The localeconv routine returns a pointer to a statically allocated lconv
    structure.  When localeconv is called, setlocale(S) is implicitly called
    and sets locale-specific values for LCALL, LCNUMERIC, or LCMONETARY
    automatically into the structure.  Refer to lconv(FP) for information
    about the lconv structure.

 Return value

    A pointer to the static lconv structure is returned.  No errors occur
    from calling this routine.
