@chapter Message Translation
The program's interface with the human should be designed in a way to
ease the human the task. One of the possibilities is to use messages in
whatever language the user prefers.
Printing messages in different languages can be implemented in different
ways. One could add all the different languages in the source code and
add among the variants every time a message has to be printed. This is
certainly no good solution since extending the set of languages is
difficult (the code must be changed) and the code itself can become
really big with dozens of message sets.
A better solution is to keep the message sets for each language are kept
in separate files which are loaded at runtime depending on the language
selection of the user.
The GNU C Library provides two different sets of functions to support
message translation. The problem is that neither of the interfaces is
officially defined by the POSIX standard. The @code{catgets} family of

@node Message catalogs a la X/Open
@section X/Open Message Catalog Handling
The @code{catgets} functions are based on the simple scheme:
@quotation
Associate every message to translate in the source code with a unique
identifier. To retrieve a message from a catalog file solely the
identifier is used.
@end quotation
This means for the author of the program that s/he will have to make
sure the meaning of the identifier in the program code and in the
message catalogs are always the same.
Before a message can be translated the catalog file must be located.
The user of the program must be able to guide the responsible function
to find whatever catalog the user wants. This is separated from what
the programmer had in mind.

@deftypefun nl_catd catopen (const char *@var{cat_name}, int @var{flag})
The @code{catgets} function tries to locate the message data file names
@var{cat_name} and loads it when found. The return value is of an
opaque type and can be used in calls to the other functions to refer to
this loaded catalog.
The return value is @code{(nl_catd) -1} in case the function failed and
no catalog was loaded. The global variable @var{errno} contains a code
for the error causing the failure. But even if the function call
succeeded this does not mean that all messages can be translated.
Locating the catalog file must happen in a way which lets the user of
the program influence the decision. It is up to the user to decide
about the language to use and sometimes it is useful to use alternate
catalog files. All this can be specified by the user by setting some

The first problem is to find out where all the message catalogs are
stored. Every program could have its own place to keep all the
different files but usually the catalog files are grouped by languages
and the catalogs for all programs are kept in the same place.
@cindex NLSPATH environment variable
To tell the @code{catopen} function where the catalog for the program
can be found the user can set the environment variable @code{NLSPATH} to
a value which describes her/his choice. Since this value must be usable
for different languages and locales it cannot be a simple string.
Instead it is a format string (similar to @code{printf}'s). An example
is
@smallexample
/usr/share/locale/%L/%N:/usr/share/locale/%L/LC_MESSAGES/%N
@end smallexample
First one can see that more than one directory can be specified (with
the usual syntax of separating them by colons). The next things to
observe are the format string, @code{%L} and @code{%N} in this case.
The @code{catopen} function knows about several of them and the
replacement for all of them is of course different.
@table @code
@item %N
This format element is substituted with the name of the catalog file.
This is the value of the @var{cat_name} argument given to
@code{catgets}.
@item %L
This format element is substituted with the name of the currently
selected locale for translating messages. How this is determined is
explained below.
@item %l
(This is the lowercase ell.) This format element is substituted with the

locale is expected to have the form
@code{@var{lang}[_@var{terr}[.@var{codeset}]]} and this format uses the
first part @var{lang}.
@item %t
This format element is substituted by the territory part @var{terr} of
the name of the currently selected locale. See the explanation of the
format above.
@item %c
This format element is substituted by the codeset part @var{codeset} of
the name of the currently selected locale. See the explanation of the
format above.
@item %%
Since @code{%} is used in a meta character there must be a way to
express the @code{%} character in the result itself. Using @code{%%}
does this just like it works for @code{printf}.
@end table
Using @code{NLSPATH} allows to specify arbitrary directories to be
searched for message catalogs while still allowing different languages
to be used. If the @code{NLSPATH} environment variable is not set the
default value is
@smallexample
@var{prefix}/share/locale/%L/%N:@var{prefix}/share/locale/%L/LC_MESSAGES/%N
@end smallexample
@noindent
where @var{prefix} is given to @code{configure} while installing the GNU
C Library (this value is in many cases @code{/usr} or the empty string).
The remaining problem is to decide which must be used. The value
decides about the substitution of the format elements mentioned above.
First of all the user can specify a path in the message catalog name
(i.e., the name contains a slash character). In this situation the
@code{NLSPATH} environment variable is not used. The catalog must exist
as specified in the program, perhaps relative to the current working
directory. This situation in not desirable and catalogs names never
should be written this way. Beside this, this behaviour is not portable
to all other platforms providing the @code{catgets} interface.

variables are examined is decided by the @var{flag} parameter of
@code{catopen}. If the value is @code{NL_CAT_LOCALE} (which is defined
in @file{nl_types.h}) then the @code{catopen} function examines the
environment variable @code{LC_ALL}, @code{LC_MESSAGES}, and @code{LANG}
in this order. The first variable which is set in the current
environment will be used.
If @var{flag} is zero only the @code{LANG} environment variable is
examined. This is a left-over from the early days of this function
where the other environment variable were not known.
In any case the environment variable should have a value of the form
@code{@var{lang}[_@var{terr}[.@var{codeset}]]} as explained above. If
no environment variable is set the @code{"C"} locale is used which
prevents any translation.
The return value of the function is in any case a valid string. Either
it is a translation from a message catalog or it is the same as the
@var{string} parameter. So a piece of code to decide whether a
translation actually happened must look like this:
@smallexample
@{
char *trans = catgets (desc, set, msg, input_string);
if (trans == input_string)
@{
/* Something went wrong. */
@}
@}
@end smallexample
@noindent
When an error occured the global variable @var{errno} is set to
@table @var
@item EBADF
The catalog does not exist.

message catalog.

While it sometimes can be useful to test for errors programs normally
will avoid any test. If the translation is not available it is no big
problem if the original, untranslated message is printed. Either the
user understands this as well or s/he will look for the reason why the
messages are not translated.
@end deftypefun
Please note that the currently selected locale does not depend on a call
to the @code{setlocale} function. It is not necessary that the locale
data files for this locale exist and calling @code{setlocale} succeeds.
The @code{catopen} function directly reads the values of the environment
variables.
@deftypefun {char *} catgets (nl_catd @var{catalog_desc}, int @var{set}, int @var{message}, const char *@var{string})
The function @code{catgets} has to be used to access the massage catalog
previously opened using the @code{catopen} function. The
@var{catalog_desc} parameter must be a value previously returned by
@code{catopen}.
The next two parameters, @var{set} and @var{message}, reflect the
internal organization of the message catalog files. This will be
explained in detail below. For now it is interesting to know that a
catalog can consists of several set and the messages in each thread are
individually numbered using numbers. Neither the set number nor the
message number must be consecutive. They can be arbitrarily chosen.
But each message (unless equal to another one) must have its own unique
pair of set and message number.
Since it is not guaranteed that the message catalog for the language
selected by the user exists the last parameter @var{string} helps to
handle this case gracefully. If no matching string can be found
@var{string} is returned. This means for the programmer that
@itemize @bullet
@item
the @var{string} parameters should contain reasonable text (this also
helps to understand the program seems otherwise there would be no hint
on the string which is expected to be returned.
@item
all @var{string} arguments should be written in the same language.

@deftypefun int catclose (nl_catd @var{catalog_desc})
The @code{catclose} function can be used to free the resources
associated with a message catalog which previously was opened by a call
to @code{catopen}. If the resources can be successfully freed the
function returns @code{0}. Otherwise it return @code{@minus{}1} and the
global variable @var{errno} is set. Errors can occur if the catalog
descriptor @var{catalog_desc} is not valid in which case @var{errno} is
set to @code{EBADF}.
@end deftypefun
@node The message catalog files
@subsection Format of the message catalog files
The only reasonable way the translate all the messages of a function and
store the result in a message catalog file which can be read by the
@code{catopen} function is to write all the message text to the
translator and let her/him translate them all. I.e., we must have a

translation. This file format is specified in the X/Open standard and
is as follows:
@itemize @bullet
@item
Lines containing only whitespace characters or empty lines are ignored.
@item
Lines which contain as the first non-whitespace character a @code{$}
followed by a whitespace character are comment and are also ignored.
@item
If a line contains as the first non-whitespace characters the sequence
@code{$set} followed by a whitespace character an additional argument
is required to follow. This argument can either be:
@itemize @minus
@item
a number. In this case the value of this number determines the set
to which the following messages are added.
@item
an identifier consisting of alphanumeric characters plus the underscore
character. In this case the set get automatically a number assigned.
This value is one added to the largest set number which so far appeared.
How to use the symbolic names is explained in section @ref{Common Usage}.
It is an error if a symbol name appears more than once. All following
messages are placed in a set with this number.
@end itemize
@item
If a line contains as the first non-whitespace characters the sequence
@code{$delset} followed by a whitespace character an additional argument
is required to follow. This argument can either be:
@itemize @minus
@item
a number. In this case the value of this number determines the set
which will be deleted.
@item
an identifier consisting of alphanumeric characters plus the underscore
character. This symbolic identifier must match a name for a set which
previously was defined. It is an error if the name is unknown.
@end itemize
In both cases all messages in the specified set will be removed. They
will not appear in the output. But if this set is later again selected
with a @code{$set} command again messages could be added and these
messages will appear in the output.
@item
If a line contains after leading whitespaces the sequence
@code{$quote}, the quoting character used for this input file is
changed to the first non-whitespace character following the
@code{$quote}. If no non-whitespace character is present before the
line ends quoting is disable.
By default no quoting character is used. In this mode strings are
terminated with the first unescaped line break. If there is a
@code{$quote} sequence present newline need not be escaped. Instead a

which gets associated with the currently selected set and the message
number represented by the number and identifier respectively.
If the start of the line is a number the message number is obvious. It
is an error if the same message number already appeared for this set.
If the leading token was an identifier the message number gets
automatically assigned. The value is the current maximum messages
number for this set plus one. It is an error if the identifier was
already used for a message in this set. It is ok to reuse the
identifier for a message in another thread. How to use the symbolic
identifiers will be explained below (@pxref{Common Usage}). There is
one limitation with the identifier: it must not be @code{Set}. The
reason will be explained below.
The text of the messages can contain escape characters. The usual bunch
of characters known from the @w{ISO C} language are recognized
(@code{\n}, @code{\t}, @code{\v}, @code{\b}, @code{\r}, @code{\f},
@code{\\}, and @code{\@var{nnn}}, where @var{nnn} is the octal coding of
a character code).

@strong{Important:} The handling of identifiers instead of numbers for
the set and messages is a GNU extension. Systems strictly following the
X/Open specification do not have this feature. An example for a message
catalog file is this:

While this file format is pretty easy it is not the best possible for
use in a running program. The @code{catopen} function would have to
parser the file and handle syntactic errors gracefully. This is not so
easy and the whole process is pretty slow. Therefore the @code{catgets}
functions expect the data in another more compact and ready-to-use file

Files in this other format are not human readable. To be easy to use by
programs it is a binary file. But the format is byte order independent
so translation files can be shared by systems of arbitrary architecture
(as long as they use the GNU C Library).
Details about the binary file format are not important to know since
these files are always created by the @code{gencat} program. The
sources of the GNU C Library also provide the sources for the

@code{catgets} functions.
The @code{gencat} program can be invoked in two ways:
@example
`gencat [@var{Option}]@dots{} [@var{Output-File} [@var{Input-File}]@dots{}]`
@end example
This is the interface defined in the X/Open standard. If no
@var{Input-File} parameter is given input will be read from standard
input. Multiple input files will be read as if they are concatenated.
If @var{Output-File} is also missing, the output will be written to
standard output. To provide the interface one is used from other
programs a second interface is provided.
@smallexample
`gencat [@var{Option}]@dots{} -o @var{Output-File} [@var{Input-File}]@dots{}`
@end smallexample
The option @samp{-o} is used to specify the output file and all file
arguments are used as input files.
Beside this one can use @file{-} or @file{/dev/stdin} for
@var{Input-File} to denote the standard input. Corresponding one can
use @file{-} and @file{/dev/stdout} for @var{Output-File} to denote
standard output. Using @file{-} as a file name is allowed in X/Open
while using the device names is a GNU extension.
The @code{gencat} program works by concatenating all input files and
then @strong{merge} the resulting collection of message sets with a

from the output file and then adding all the new messages. To
regenerate a catalog file while ignoring the old contents therefore
requires to remove the output file if it exists. If the output is
written to standard output no merging takes place.
@noindent
The following table shows the options understood by the @code{gencat}
program. The X/Open standard does not specify any option for the
program so all of these are GNU extensions.
@table @samp
@item -V
@itemx --version
Print the version information and exit.
@item -h
@itemx --help
Print a usage message listing all available options, then exit successfully.
@item --new
Do never merge the new messages from the input files with the old content
of the output files. The old content of the output file is discarded.
@item -H
@itemx --header=name
This option is used to emit the symbolic names given to sets and
messages in the input files for use in the program. Details about how
to use this are given in the next section. The @var{name} parameter to
this option specifies the name of the output file. It will contain a
number of C preprocessor @code{#define}s to associate a name with a
number.
Please note that the generated file only contains the symbols from the
input files. If the output is merged with the previous content of the
output file the possibly existing symbols from the file(s) which
generated the old output files are not in the generated header file.

@node Common Usage
@subsection How to use the @code{catgets} interface
The @code{catgets} functions can be used in two different ways. By
following slavishly the X/Open specs and not relying on the extension

catgets (catdesc, set, msg, "string")
@end smallexample
@noindent
@var{catgets} is retrieved from a call to @code{catopen} which is
normally done once at the program start. The @code{"string"} is the
string we want to translate. The problems start with the set and
message numbers.
In a bigger program several programmers usually work at the same time on
the program and so coordinating the number allocation is crucial.

with equal translations (please note that there might be strings which
are equal in one language but have different translations due to
difference contexts).
The allocation process can be relaxed a bit by different set numbers for
different parts of the program. So the number of developers who have to
coordinate the allocation can be reduced. But still lists must be keep
track of the allocation and errors can easily happen. These errors
cannot be discovered by the compiler or the @code{catgets} functions.
Only the user of the program might see wrong messages printed. In the
worst cases the messages are so irritating that they cannot be
recognized as wrong. Think about the translations for @code{"true"} and

@subsubsection Using symbolic names
The problems mentioned in the last section derive from the fact that:
@enumerate
@item
the numbers are allocated once and due to the possibly frequent use of
them it is difficult to change a number later.
@item
the numbers do not allow to guess anything about the string and
therefore collisions can easily happen.
@end enumerate
By constantly using symbolic names and by providing a method which maps
the string content to a symbolic name (however this will happen) one can
prevent both problems above. The cost of this is that the programmer
has to write a complete message catalog file while s/he is writing the
program itself.
This is necessary since the symbolic names must be mapped to numbers
before the program sources can be compiled. In the last section it was
described how to generate a header containing the mapping of the names.
E.g., for the example message file given in the last section we could
call the @code{gencat} program as follow (assume @file{ex.msg} contains
the sources).
@smallexample
gencat -H ex.h -o ex.cat ex.msg
@end smallexample
@noindent
This generates a header file with the following content:
@smallexample
#define SetTwoSet 0x2 /* u.msg:8 */
#define SetOneSet 0x1 /* u.msg:4 */
#define SetOnetwo 0x2 /* u.msg:6 */
@end smallexample
As can be seen the various symbols given in the source file are mangled
to generate unique identifiers and these identifiers get numbers
assigned. Reading the source file and knowing about the rules will
allow to predict the content of the header file (it is deterministic)
but this is not necessary. The @code{gencat} program can take care for
everything. All the programmer has to do is to put the generated header
file in the dependency list of the source files of her/his project and
to add a rules to regenerate the header of any of the input files
change.
One word about the symbol mangling. Every symbol consists of two parts:
the name of the message set plus the name of the message or the special
string @code{Set}. So @code{SetOnetwo} means this macro can be used to
access the translation with identifier @code{two} in the message set
@code{SetOne}.
The other names denote the names of the message sets. The special
string @code{Set} is used in the place of the message identifier.
If in the code the second string of the set @code{SetOne} is used the C
code should look like this:
@smallexample
catgets (catdesc, SetOneSet, SetOnetwo,
" Message with ID \"two\", which gets the value 2 assigned")
@end smallexample
Writing the function this way will allow to change the message number
and even the set number without requiring any change in the C source
code. (The text of the string is normally not the same; this is only
for this example.)
@subsubsection How does to this allow to develop
To illustrate the usual way to work with the symbolic version numbers
here is a little example. Assume we want to write the very complex and
famous greeting program. We start by writing the code as usual:
@smallexample
#include <stdio.h>
int
main (void)
@{
printf ("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
@}
@end smallexample
Now we want to internationalize the message and therefore replace the
message with whatever the user wants.
@smallexample
#include <nl_types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "msgnrs.h"
int
main (void)
@{
nl_catd catdesc = catopen ("hello.cat", NL_CAT_LOCALE);

We see how the catalog object is opened and the returned descriptor used
in the other function calls. It is not really necessary to check for
failure of any of the functions since even in these situations the
functions will behave reasonable. They simply will be return a
translation.
What remains unspecified here are the constants @code{SetMainSet} and
@code{SetMainHello}. These are the symbolic names describing the
message. To get the actual definitions which match the information in
the catalog file we have to create the message catalog source file and
process it using the @code{gencat} program.
@smallexample
$ Messages for the famous greeting program.
$quote "
$set Main
Hello "Hallo, Welt!\n"
@end smallexample
Now we can start building the program (assume the message catalog source
file is named @file{hello.msg} and the program source file @file{hello.c}):
@smallexample
@cartouche
% gencat -H msgnrs.h -o hello.cat hello.msg
% cat msgnrs.h
#define MainSet 0x1 /* hello.msg:4 */
#define MainHello 0x1 /* hello.msg:5 */
% gcc -o hello hello.c -I.
% cp hello.cat /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES
% echo $LC_ALL
de
% ./hello
Hallo, Welt!
%
@end cartouche
@end smallexample
The call of the @code{gencat} program creates the missing header file
@file{msgnrs.h} as well as the message catalog binary. The former is
used in the compilation of @file{hello.c} while the later is placed in a
directory in which the @code{catopen} function will try to locate it.
Please check the @code{LC_ALL} environment variable and the default path
for @code{catopen} presented in the description above.
@node The Uniforum approach
@section The Uniforum approach to Message Translation
Sun Microsystems tried to standardize a different approach to message
translation in the Uniforum group. There never was a real standard
defined but still the interface was used in Sun's operation systems.
Since this approach fits better in the development process of free
software it is also used throughout the GNU package and the GNU
@file{gettext} package provides support for this outside the GNU C
Library.
The code of the @file{libintl} from GNU @file{gettext} is the same as
the code in the GNU C Library. So the documentation in the GNU
@file{gettext} manual is also valid for the functionality here. The
following text will describe the library functions in detail. But the
numerous helper programs are not described in this manual. Instead
people should read the GNU @file{gettext} manual
(@pxref{Top,,GNU gettext utilities,gettext,Native Language Support Library and Tools}).
We will only give a short overview.
Though the @code{catgets} functions are available by default on more
systems the @code{gettext} interface is at least as portable as the
former. The GNU @file{gettext} package can be used wherever the
functions are not available.

@subsection The @code{gettext} family of functions
The paradigms underlying the @code{gettext} approach to message
translations is different from that of the @code{catgets} functions the
basic functionally is equivalent. There are functions of the following
categories:
@menu
* Translation with gettext:: What has to be done to translate a message.
* Locating gettext catalog:: How to determine which catalog to be used.
* Using gettextized software:: The possibilities of the user to influence
the way @code{gettext} works.
@end menu
@node Translation with gettext
@subsubsection What has to be done to translate a message?
The @code{gettext} functions have a very simple interface. The most
basic function just takes the string which shall be translated as the
argument and it returns the translation. This is fundamentally
different from the @code{catgets} approach where an extra key is
necessary and the original string is only used for the error case.
If the string which has to be translated is the only argument this of
course means the string itself is the key. I.e., the translation will
be selected based on the original string. The message catalogs must
therefore contain the original strings plus one translation for any such
string. The task of the @code{gettext} function is it to compare the
argument string with the available strings in the catalog and return the
appropriate translation. Of course this process is optimized so that
this process is not more expensive than an access using an atomic key
like in @code{catgets}.
The @code{gettext} approach has some advantages but also some
disadvantages. Please see the GNU @file{gettext} manual for a detailed
discussion of the pros and cons.
All the definitions and declarations for @code{gettext} can be found in
the @file{libintl.h} header file. On systems where these functions are
not part of the C library they can be found in a separate library named
@file{libintl.a} (or accordingly different for shared libraries).
@deftypefun {char *} gettext (const char *@var{msgid})
The @code{gettext} function searches the currently selected message
catalogs for a string which is equal to @var{msgid}. If there is such a
string available it is returned. Otherwise the argument string
@var{msgid} is returned.
Please note that all though the return value is @code{char *} the
returned string must not be changed. This broken type results from the
history of the function and does not reflect the way the function should
be used.
Please note that above we wrote ``message catalogs'' (plural). This is
a speciality of the GNU implementation of these functions and we will

So there is no easy way to detect a missing message catalog beside
comparing the argument string with the result. But it is normally the
task of the user to react on missing catalogs. The program cannot guess
when a message catalog is really necessary since for a user who s peaks
the language the program was developed in does not need any translation.
@end deftypefun
The remaining two functions to access the message catalog add some
functionality to select a message catalog which is not the default one.
This is important if parts of the program are developed independently.
Every part can have its own message catalog and all of them can be used
at the same time. The C library itself is an example: internally it
uses the @code{gettext} functions but since it must not depend on a
currently selected default message catalog it must specify all ambiguous
information.
@deftypefun {char *} dgettext (const char *@var{domainname}, const char *@var{msgid})
The @code{dgettext} functions acts just like the @code{gettext}
function. It only takes an additional first argument @var{domainname}
which guides the selection of the message catalogs which are searched
for the translation. If the @var{domainname} parameter is the null
pointer the @code{dgettext} function is exactly equivalent to
@code{gettext} since the default value for the domain name is used.
As for @code{gettext} the return value type is @code{char *} which is an

@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {char *} dcgettext (const char *@var{domainname}, const char *@var{msgid}, int @var{category})
The @code{dcgettext} adds another argument to those which
@code{dgettext} takes. This argument @var{category} specifies the last
piece of information needed to localize the message catalog. I.e., the
domain name and the locale category exactly specify which message
catalog has to be used (relative to a given directory, see below).
The @code{dgettext} function can be expressed in terms of
@code{dcgettext} by using
@smallexample
dcgettext (domain, string, LC_MESSAGES)
@end smallexample
@noindent
instead of
@smallexample
dgettext (domain, string)
@end smallexample
This also shows which values are expected for the third parameter. One
has to use the available selectors for the categories available in
@file{locale.h}. Normally the available values are @code{LC_CTYPE},
@code{LC_COLLATE}, @code{LC_MESSAGES}, @code{LC_MONETARY},
@code{LC_NUMERIC}, and @code{LC_TIME}. Please note that @code{LC_ALL}
must not be used and even though the names might suggest this, there is
no relation to the environments variables of this name.
The @code{dcgettext} function is only implemented for compatibility with
other systems which have @code{gettext} functions. There is not really
any situation where it is necessary (or useful) to use a different value
but @code{LC_MESSAGES} in for the @var{category} parameter. We are
dealing with messages here and any other choice can only be irritating.
As for @code{gettext} the return value type is @code{char *} which is an

When using the three functions above in a program it is a frequent case
that the @var{msgid} argument is a constant string. So it is worth to
optimize this case. Thinking shortly about this one will realize that
as long as no new message catalog is loaded the translation of a message
will not change. I.e., the algorithm to determine the translation is
deterministic.
Exactly this is what the optimizations implemented in the

the GNU C compiler, optimization is selected and the @var{msgid}
argument to @code{gettext}, @code{dgettext} or @code{dcgettext} is a
constant string the actual function call will only be done the first
time the message is used and then always only if any new message catalog
was loaded and so the result of the translation lookup might be
different. See the @file{libintl.h} header file for details. For the
user it is only important to know that the result is always the same,
independent of the compiler or compiler options in use.

remarkable simple interface. But to provide the user of the program
still the opportunity to select exactly the translation s/he wants and
also to provide the programmer the possibility to influence the way to
locate the search for catalogs files there is a quite complicated
underlying mechanism which controls all this. The code is complicated
the use is easy.
Basically we have two different tasks to perform which can also be
performed by the @code{catgets} functions:
@enumerate
@item
Locate the set of message catalogs. There are a number of files for
different languages and which all belong to the package. Usually they
are all stored in the filesystem below a certain directory.
There can be arbitrary many packages installed and they can follow
different guidelines for the placement of their files.
@item
Relative to the location specified by the package the actual translation
files must be searched, based on the wishes of the user. I.e., for each
language the user selects the program should be able to locate the
appropriate file.
@end enumerate
This is the functionality required by the specifications for
@code{gettext} and this is also what the @code{catgets} functions are
able to do. But there are some problems unresolved:
@itemize @bullet
@item
The language to be used can be specified in several different ways.
There is no generally accepted standard for this and the user always
expects the program understand what s/he means. E.g., to select the
German translation one could write @code{de}, @code{german}, or
@code{deutsch} and the program should always react the same.
@item
Sometimes the specification of the user is too detailed. If s/he, e.g.,
specifies @code{de_DE.ISO-8859-1} which means German, spoken in Germany,
coded using the @w{ISO 8859-1} character set there is the possibility
that a message catalog matching this exactly is not available. But
there could be a catalog matching @code{de} and if the character set
used on the machine is always @w{ISO 8859-1} there is no reason why this
later message catalog should not be used. (We call this @dfn{message
inheritance}.)
@item
If a catalog for a wanted language is not available it is not always the
second best choice to fall back on the language of the developer and
simply not translate any message. Instead a user might be better able
to read the messages in another language and so the user of the program
should be able to define an precedence order of languages.

performed by the programmer, the other by the user. We will start with
the functions the programmer can use since the user configuration will
be based on this.
As the functions described in the last sections already mention separate
sets of messages can be selected by a @dfn{domain name}. This is a
simple string which should be unique for each program part with uses a
separate domain. It is possible to use in one program arbitrary many
domains at the same time. E.g., the GNU C Library itself uses a domain
named @code{libc} while the program using the C Library could use a
domain named @code{foo}. The important point is that at any time
exactly one domain is active. This is controlled with the following
function.
@deftypefun {char *} textdomain (const char *@var{domainname})
The @code{textdomain} function sets the default domain, which is used in
all future @code{gettext} calls, to @var{domainname}. Please note that
@code{dgettext} and @code{dcgettext} calls are not influenced if the
@var{domainname} parameter of these functions is not the null pointer.
Before the first call to @code{textdomain} the default domain is

the @code{gettext} API. This name is as good as any other name. No
program should ever really use a domain with this name since this can
only lead to problems.
The function returns the value which is from now on taken as the default
domain. If the system went out of memory the returned value is
@code{NULL} and the global variable @var{errno} is set to @code{ENOMEM}.
Despite the return value type being @code{char *} the return string must
not be changed. It is allocated internally by the @code{textdomain}
function.
If the @var{domainname} parameter is the null pointer no new default
domain is set. Instead the currently selected default domain is
returned.
If the @var{domainname} parameter is the empty string the default domain
is reset to its initial value, the domain with the name @code{messages}.
This possibility is questionable to use since the domain @code{messages}
really never should be used.

containing the name of the selected directory name. The string is
allocated internally in the function and must not be changed by the
user. If the system went out of core during the execution of
@code{bindtextdomain} the return value is @code{NULL} and the global
variable @var{errno} is set accordingly.

@subsubsection User influence on @code{gettext}
The last sections described what the programmer can do to
internationalize the messages of the program. But it is finally up to
the user to select the message s/he wants to see. S/He must understand
them.
The POSIX locale model uses the environment variables @code{LC_COLLATE},
@code{LC_CTYPE}, @code{LC_MESSAGES}, @code{LC_MONETARY}, @code{NUMERIC},
and @code{LC_TIME} to select the locale which is to be used. This way
the user can influence lots of functions. As we mentioned above the
@code{gettext} functions also take advantage of this.
To understand how this happens it is necessary to take a look at the
various components of the filename which gets computed to locate a
message catalog. It is composed as follows:
@smallexample
@var{dir_name}/@var{locale}/LC_@var{category}/@var{domain_name}.mo
@end smallexample
The default value for @var{dir_name} is system specific. It is computed
from the value given as the prefix while configuring the C library.
This value normally is @file{/usr} or @file{/}. For the former the
complete @var{dir_name} is:
@smallexample
/usr/share/locale
@end smallexample
We can use @file{/usr/share} since the @file{.mo} files containing the
message catalogs are system independent, all systems can use the same
files. If the program executed the @code{bindtextdomain} function for
the message domain that is currently handled the @code{dir_name}
component is the exactly the value which was given to the function as
the second parameter. I.e., @code{bindtextdomain} allows to overwrite

address file everywhere in the filesystem.
The @var{category} is the name of the locale category which was selected
in the program code. For @code{gettext} and @code{dgettext} this is
always @code{LC_MESSAGES}, for @code{dcgettext} this is selected by the
value of the third parameter. As said above it should be avoided to
ever use a category other than @code{LC_MESSAGES}.
The @var{locale} component is computed based on the category used. Just
like for the @code{setlocale} function here comes the user selection
into the play. Some environment variables are examined in a fixed order
and the first environment variable set determines the return value of
the lookup process. In detail, for the category @code{LC_xxx} the
following variables in this order are examined:
@table @code
@item LANGUAGE
@item LC_ALL
@item LC_xxx
@item LANG
@end table
This looks very familiar. With the exception of the @code{LANGUAGE}
environment variable this is exactly the lookup order the
@code{setlocale} function uses. But why introducing the @code{LANGUAGE}
variable?
The reason is that the syntax of the values these variables can have is
different to what is expected by the @code{setlocale} function. If we
would set @code{LC_ALL} to a value following the extended syntax that
would mean the @code{setlocale} function will never be able to use the
value of this variable as well. An additional variable removes this
problem plus we can select the language independently of the locale
setting which sometimes is useful.
While for the @code{LC_xxx} variables the value should consist of
exactly one specification of a locale the @code{LANGUAGE} variable's
value can consist of a colon separated list of locale names. The
attentive reader will realize that this is the way we manage to
implement one of our additional demands above: we want to be able to
specify an ordered list of language.
Back to the constructed filename we have only one component missing.
The @var{domain_name} part is the name which was either registered using
the @code{textdomain} function or which was given to @code{dgettext} or
@code{dcgettext} as the first parameter. Now it becomes obvious that a
good choice for the domain name in the program code is a string which is
closely related to the program/package name. E.g., for the GNU C
Library the domain name is @code{libc}.
@noindent
A limit piece of example code should show how the programmer is supposed
to work:
@smallexample
@{
textdomain ("test-package");
bindtextdomain ("test-package", "/usr/local/share/locale");
puts (gettext ("Hello, world!");
@}
@end smallexample
At the program start the default domain is @code{messages}. The
@code{textdomain} call changes this to @code{test-package}. The
@code{bindtextdomain} call specifies that the message catalogs for the
domain @code{test-package} can be found below the directory
@file{/usr/local/share/locale}.
If now the user set in her/his environment the variable @code{LANGUAGE}
to @code{de} the @code{gettext} function will try to use the
translations from the file
@smallexample
/usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/test-package.mo
@end smallexample
From the above descriptions it should be clear which component of this

filename is determined by which source.
In the above example we assumed that the @code{LANGUAGE} environment
variable to @code{de}. This might be an appropriate selection but what
happens if the user wants to use @code{LC_ALL} because of the wider
usability and here the required value is @code{de_DE.ISO-8859-1}? We
already mentioned above that a situation like this is not infrequent.
E.g., a person might prefer reading a dialect and if this is not
available fall back on the standard language.
The @code{gettext} functions know about situations like this and can
handle them gracefully. The functions recognize the format of the value
of the environment variable. It can split the value is different pieces
and by leaving out the only or the other part it can construct new
values. This happens of course in a predictable way. To understand
this one must know the format of the environment variable value. There
are to more or less standardized forms:
@table @emph
@item X/Open Format
@code{language[_territory[.codeset]][@@modifier]}
@item CEN Format (European Community Standard)
@code{language[_territory][+audience][+special][,[sponsor][_revision]]}
@end table
The functions will automatically recognize which format is used. Less
specific locale names will be stripped of in the order of the following
list:

field in the X/Open format and the @code{audience} format have the same
meaning. Beside one can see that the @code{language} field for obvious
reasons never will be dropped.
The only new thing is the @code{normalized codeset} entry. This is
another goodie which is introduced to help reducing the chaos which
derives from the inability of the people to standardize the names of
character sets. Instead of @w{ISO-8859-1} one can often see @w{8859-1},
@w{88591}, @w{iso8859-1}, or @w{iso_8859-1}. The @code{normalized
codeset} value is generated from the user-provided character set name by
applying the following rules:
@enumerate
@item
Remove all characters beside numbers and letters.
@item
Fold letters to lowercase.
@item
If the same only contains digits prepend the string @code{"iso"}.
@end enumerate
@noindent
So all of the above name will be normalized to @code{iso88591}. This
allows the program user much more freely choosing the locale name.
Even this extended functionality still does not help to solve the
problem that completely different names can be used to denote the same
locale (e.g., @code{de} and @code{german}). To be of help in this
situation the locale implementation and also the @code{gettext}
functions know about aliases.
The file @file{/usr/share/locale/locale.alias} (replace @file{/usr} with
whatever prefix you used for configuring the C library) contains a
mapping of alternative names to more regular names. The system manager
is free to add new entries to fill her/his own needs. The selected
locale from the environment is compared with the entries in the first
column of this file ignoring the case. If they match the value of the
second column is used instead for the further handling.
In the description of the format of the environment variables we already
mentioned the character set as a factor in the selection of the message
catalog. In fact, only catalogs which contain text written using the
character set of the system/program can be used (directly; there will
come a solution for this some day). This means for the user that s/he
will always have to take care for this. If in the collection of the
message catalogs there are files for the same language but coded using
different character sets the user has to be careful.

The GNU C Library does not contain the source code for the programs to
handle message catalogs for the @code{gettext} functions. As part of
the GNU project the GNU gettext package contains everything the
developer needs. The functionality provided by the tools in this
package by far exceeds the abilities of the @code{gencat} program
described above for the @code{catgets} functions.
There is a program @code{msgfmt} which is the equivalent program to the
@code{gencat} program. It generates from the human-readable and
-editable form of the message catalog a binary file which can be used by
the @code{gettext} functions. But there are several more programs
available.
The @code{xgettext} program can be used to automatically extract the
translatable messages from a source file. I.e., the programmer need not
take care for the translations and the list of messages which have to be
translated. S/He will simply wrap the translatable string in calls to
@code{gettext} et.al and the rest will be done by @code{xgettext}. This
program has a lot of option which help to customize the output or do
help to understand the input better.
Other programs help to manage development cycle when new messages appear
in the source files or when a new translation of the messages appear.

catalog. Beside marking the translatable string in the source code and
generating the translations the developers do not have anything to do
themself.
