Bug 1264: "default locale" inadequately specified in newlocale() Accepted as Marked http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1264 This item is tagged for TC3-2008. An interpretation is required. Interpretation response ------------------------ The standard is unclear on this issue, and no conformance distinction can be made between alternative implementations based on this. This is being referred to the sponsor. Rationale: ------------- There are several different uses of "default" and it is not clear which one should apply here. Notes to the Editor (not part of this interpretation): ------------------------------------------------------- On page 1392 line 46282 section newlocale(), change: default locale to: POSIX locale Bug 1265: Knock-on effects of Issue 7 change to XCU 2.8.1 OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1265 This item was discussed and will be continued next time.
