Yes, basically if you want to do it fully for standard library and boost:
std::locale::global(loc); std::cout.imbue(loc); std::cin.imbue(loc); std::cerr.imbue(loc); std::clog.imbue(loc);
std::wcout.imbue(loc); std::wcin.imbue(loc); std::wcerr.imbue(loc); std::wclog.imbue(loc);
// this is for boost filesystem boost::filesystem::path::imbue(loc);
Thanks for this confirmation.
This seems such an obviously attractive pit, I am sure Noah and I won't be the last to fall in it ;-)
I think Boost.Locale docs would be a good place to remind users of locale of its existence, including a reference to 27.4.2.3/4 of C++03.
Would you like to add it as a [warning ....]?
What about library provided functions, such as the following? void imbue_globally(_locale) { std::locale::global(_locale); std::cout.imbue(_locale); std::cin.imbue(_locale); std::cerr.imbue(_locale); std::clog.imbue(_locale); } void wimbue_globally(_locale) { std::locale::global(_locale); std::wcout.imbue(_locale); std::wcin.imbue(_locale); std::wcerr.imbue(_locale); std::wclog.imbue(_locale); } _____ Rob Stewart robert.stewart@sig.com Software Engineer using std::disclaimer; Dev Tools & Components Susquehanna International Group, LLP http://www.sig.com IMPORTANT: The information contained in this email and/or its attachments is confidential.
