<h2>ldap_set_locale() -- Change the Locale Used by LDAP</h2>
<div class="box" style="width: 70%;">

&nbsp;&nbsp;Syntax<br>
<pre>
#include &lt;ldap.h&gt;
int ldap_set_locale(
char *<em>locale</em> )
</pre>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Default Public Authority: *USE<br>
<!-- iddvc RMBR -->
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Library Name/Service Program: QSYS/QGLDCLNT<br>

<p>The <strong>ldap_set_locale()</strong> API is used to change the locale used
by LDAP for conversions between the local code page and UTF-8 or Unicode.
Unless explicitly set with the <strong>ldap_set_locale()</strong> API, LDAP
will use the application's default locale. To force the LDAP library to use
another locale, specify the appropriate locale string.</p>
<p>Note that the specified locale is applicable to all conversions by the LDAP
library within the applications address space. The LDAP locale should be set or
changed only when there is no other LDAP activity occuring within the
application on other threads.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>*R authority is needed to the selected locale file and *X to the associated
directories.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>locale</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) The locale to be used by LDAP when using conversion apis to convert
local text to/from UTF-8 or Unicode. If the locale is not explicitly set, the
LDAP library will use the application's default locale. To force the LDAP
library to use another locale, specify the appropriate locale string.
<p>You can set the value of <em>locale</em> to C, "", LC_C or the IFS pathname
of a *LOCALE object. A <em>locale</em> value of C indicates the default C
environment. A locale value of "" tells <strong>ldap_set_locale()</strong> to
use the default locale for the implementation.</p>
<p>Examples:</p>
<pre>
rc = ldap_set_locale(LC_C);
rc = ldap_set_locale("/qsys.lib/en_us.locale");
</pre>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>LDAP_SUCCESS</strong></dt>
<dd>if the request was successful.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>another LDAP error code</strong></dt>
<dd>if the request was not successful.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>The <strong>ldap_set_locale()</strong> API will return LDAP error code if
not successful. See <a href="ldap_error_condt.htm">LDAP Client API Error
Conditions</a> for possible values for LDAP error codes.</p>
<br>
