#47451 [Opn->Bgs]: setlocale() ignores setting

ID: 47451 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: szoftos at freemail dot hu -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Gettext related Operating System: FreeBSD 7.0 PHP Version: 5.2.9RC2 New Comment: If you can't use putenv() then you need to set the environment variables prior to running PHP / starting the webserver. No bug here. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-02-19 16:04:20] szoftos at freemail dot hu Description: ------------ Hello, on BSD systems, setlocale itself is not usable for gettext without putenv(). If I don't use putenv() with setlocale() (which is not enabled by default in safe_mode for $LANG), my own translations are not useable with gettext. Since i use safe_mode, I'd not prefer enabling the setting of $LANG variablewith putenv(). What I've seen during php ktracing, is that setlocale() only reads the original language settings from /usr/share/locale/*, but my own translations are not looked up. Is there any way to fix that functionality? Maybe it's more BSD related than I think. Reproduce code: --------------- You can simply try the gettext module's own tests to test it in BSD. They all will fail, because those tests aren't usint putenv(). Expected result: ---------------- I expect not to use the putenv() with safe_mode=on :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47451&edit=1
