std::messages

Member functions

messages::messages

messages::~messages

messages::openmessages::do_open

messages::getmessages::do_get

messages::closemessages::do_close

Defined in header <locale>
public: void close( catalog c ) const;	(1)
protected: virtual void do_close( catalog c ) const;	(2)

1) public member function, calls the protected virtual member function do_close of the most derived class.

2) Releases the implementation-defined resources associated with an open catalog that is designated by the value c of type catalog (inherited from std::messages_base), which was obtained from open().

Parameters

c

-

a valid open catalog identifier, on which close() has not yet been called

Return value

(none)

Notes

On POSIX systems, this function call usually translates to a call to catclose(). In GNU libstdc++, which is implemented in terms of GNU gettext(), it does nothing.

Example

The following example demonstrated retrieval of messages: on a typical GNU/Linux system it reads from /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/sed.mo

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <locale>

int main()
{
    std::locale loc("de_DE.utf8");
    std::cout.imbue(loc);
    auto& facet = std::use_facet<std::messages<char>>(loc);
    auto cat = facet.open("sed", loc);
    if(cat < 0 )
        std::cout << "Could not open german \"sed\" message catalog\n";
    else
        std::cout << "\"No match\" in German: "
                  << facet.get(cat, 0, 0, "No match") << '\n'
                  << "\"Memory exhausted\" in German: "
                  << facet.get(cat, 0, 0, "Memory exhausted") << '\n';
    facet.close(cat);
}

Possible output:

"No match" in German: Keine bereinstimmung
"Memory exhausted" in German: Speicher erschpft
