I am writing a non-trivial application, and one of the things that will be very important for it will be to work in multiple locales -- not just mainstream locales like english, french, german, etc ..., but others, including russian (cyrillic), japanese (DBCS), etc ... Where might I find documentation on adding support for this to my program. Of course, I'd like for this to be as cross-platform as possible -- my program currently runs under FreeBSD, Solaris, and Linux. The application is already localized into many of these languages, but i'm worried about things such as input locales, etc. ... I'm also assuming that the base strcmp, strcasecmp, and all those that ship in the OS do not support DBCS, etc ... where would be a good place to start? thanks! marc.
