JBASE_LOCALE

Man Page Index


Description
This environment variable sets the locale for UTF8, sorting and data collation sequences. It is required for use with Internationalization and should also be set when using jBASE Secondary Indexes.

Values
Any valid locale. Use the jlocales command for a list of supported locales.

Default
None.

Setting    
Normal environment variable, so it can be set at any time by the commands:

Unix
JBASE_LOCALE=en_US
export JBASE_LOCALE

Windows
set JBASE_LOCALE=en_US

Notes
It is a common misconception that a locale of C is the same as en_US. If your system defaults to a locale of C then it should be explicitly set system-wide to a value of en_US.
