5.7.14. __LC_COLLATE_DEF

This macro is used to create collate blocks used when sorting ASCII characters. The definition from rt_locale.h, the definition of a macro for creating an empty table, and sample code are shown in Example 5.10 and Example 5.11. These examples are incomplete, so refer to rt_locale.h for details.

For all the macros, the first two arguments are a symbol prefix and a locale name. The resulting locale block is addressed by the expression &symprefix_start, and the index entry by the expression &symprefix_index.

Example 5.10. Macro for use with array


#define __LC_COLLATE_DEF(sym,ln) \
static const int sym##_index = ~3&(3+(268+(~3&(3+sizeof(ln))))); \
static const char sym##_lname[~3 & (3 + sizeof(ln))] = ln; \
static const int sym##_pname = -4-(~3 & (3 + sizeof(ln))); \
static const int sym##_start = 4; \
static const char sym##_table[] =

Example 5.11. Macro that generates default table


#define __LC_COLLATE_TRIVIAL_DEF(sym,ln) \
static const int sym##_index = ~3&(3+(12+(~3&(3+sizeof(ln))))); \
static const char sym##_lname[~3 & (3 + sizeof(ln))] = ln; \
static const int sym##_pname = -4-(~3 & (3 + sizeof(ln))); \
static const int sym##_start = 0;

Usage

See _get_lc_collate(). See also __LC_CTYPE_DEF for details of the side-effects of compiler optimizations.
