LC_TIME

Behavior of strftime function.

Class Methods

Get( String environmentVariableName )

Returns the value of the specified environment variable.

GetDefault( String environmentVariableName, String defaultValue )

Returns the value of the specified environment variable if it exists; otherwise, it returns the specified default value.

Put( )

(UNIX only) Returns a Boolean indicating success in setting the specified environment variable.

SetLocale( Integer lcConstant, String lcString )

Returns the specified String, substituting environment variable values for "$"-prefixed names where indicated.

Translate( String translationString )

Class Attributes

Integer LC_ALL

All locale-specific behavior (all categories).

Integer LC_COLLATE

Behavior of strcoll and strxfrm functions.

Integer LC_CTYPE

Behavior of character-handling functions (except isdigit, isxdigit, mbstowcs, and mbtowc, which are unaffected).

Integer LC_MESSAGES

(Unix only) Behavior of messaging functions such as dgettext, gettext, and gettxt.

Integer LC_MONETARY

Monetary formatting information returned by the localeconv function.

Integer LC_NUMERIC

Decimal-point character for formatted output routines (for example, printf), data conversion routines, and nonmonetary formatting information returned by localeconv function.

Integer LC_TIME

Behavior of strftime function.

Class Methods

Get

String Get( String environmentVariableName )

Returns the value of the specified environment variable.

Parameters

environmentVariableName

An environment variable name.

Returns:

The value of the specified environment variable.

GetDefault

String GetDefault( String environmentVariableName,
String defaultValue )

Returns the value of the specified environment variable if it exists; otherwise, it returns the specified default value.

Parameters

environmentVariableName

An environment variable name.

defaultValue

A default value.

Returns:

The specified environment variable if it exists; otherwise, the specified default value.

Put

Boolean Put()

(UNIX only) Returns a Boolean indicating success in setting the specified environment variable. The nameValue argument has the format "environmentVariableName=value".

Returns:

Boolean indicating success in setting the specified environment variable.

Example

if ( Env.Put( "OTHOME=/usr/local/livelink" ) )

    Echo( "Put() success!" )
else
    Echo( "Put() failure." )
end

SetLocale

String SetLocale( Integer lcConstant,
String lcString )

Internal use only. Tests string behavior for other language locales.

Parameters

lcConstant

One of the category constants in LC_XXX.

lcString

A valid locale string.

Returns:

The string.

Translate

String Translate( String translationString )

Returns an evaluated translationString, substituting "$"-prefixed environment variable name(s) with corresponding environment variable value(s). Translate() resolves the environment variables in translationString as a typical UNIX shell would.

Parameters

translationString

A String to translate.

Returns:

The specified String with environment variable values substituted where indicated.

Example

Here is an example:

Echo( Env.Translate( "OTHOME=$OTHOME, and PATH=$PATH" ) )
