27 27 .SH DESCRIPTION
28 28 .LP
29 29 The
30 30 .B uselocale()
31 31 function is used to obtain and set the current locale for a thread. When
32 32 a thread is created, it uses the global locale as specified by calls to
33 33 .BR setlocale() .
34 34 .LP
35 35 If
36 36 .BR (locale_t) 0
37 -is supplied for
37 +is supplied for
38 38 .IR loc ,
39 39 then no change is made to the thread's locale setting. This can be used
40 40 to query the thread's locale without making any change.
41 41 .LP
42 42 If
43 43 .B LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE
44 44 is supplied for
45 45 .IR loc ,
46 46 then the thread will use the global locale, undoing the effect of any
47 47 prior call to establish a thread-specific locale.
48 48 .LP
49 49 Otherwise the thread will use the supplied
50 50 .I loc
51 51 locale object as a thread-specific locale. Changes to the global
52 52 locale, or to the locale of any other thread, will not affect this thread.
53 53 .LP
54 54 Locale objects for use with
55 55 .B uselocale()
56 56 can be created with the functions
57 57 .BR duplocale (3C)
58 58 and
59 59 .BR newlocale (3C).
60 60 .SH RETURN VALUES
61 61 Upon successful completion, the
62 62 .B uselocale()
63 63 function always returns the previous locale that was set. If no locale
64 64 was previously set, the global locale,
65 65 .BR LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE ,
66 66 is returned. On failure, the
67 67 .B uselocale()
68 68 function returns
69 69 .BR (locale_t) 0,
70 70 and sets
71 71 .B errno
72 72 to indicate the error.
73 73 .SH ERRORS
74 74 .TP
75 75 .B EINVAL
76 76 An invalid locale was encountered or an internal error occurred that
77 77 caused the system to be unable to update the locale.
