libintl(3LIB) Interface Libraries libintl(3LIB)
NAME
libintl - internationalization library
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lintl [ library... ]
#include <libintl.h>
#include <locale.h> /* needed for dcgettext() only */
DESCRIPTION
Historically, functions in this library provided wide character translations. This functionality now resides in libc(3LIB).
This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility for both runtime and compilation environments. The shared object is imple-
mented as a filter on libc.so.1. New application development need not specify -lintl.
INTERFACES
The shared object libintl.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below. See intro(3) for additional information on shared object
interfaces.
