TEXTDOMAIN(3) Library Functions Manual TEXTDOMAIN(3) NAME textdomain - set domain for future gettext() calls SYNOPSIS #include <libintl.h> char * textdomain (const char * domainname); DESCRIPTION The textdomain function sets or retrieves the current message domain. A message domain is a set of translatable msgid messages. Usually, ev- ery software package has its own message domain. The domain name is used to determine the message catalog where a translation is looked up; it must be a non-empty string. The current message domain is used by the gettext, ngettext functions, and by the dgettext, dcgettext, dngettext and dcngettext functions when called with a NULL domainname argument. If domainname is not NULL, the current message domain is set to domain- name. The string the function stores internally is a copy of the do- mainname argument. If domainname is NULL, the function returns the current message domain. RETURN VALUE If successful, the textdomain function returns the current message do- main, after possibly changing it. The resulting string is valid until the next textdomain call and must not be modified or freed. If a memory allocation failure occurs, it sets errno to ENOMEM and returns NULL. ERRORS The following error can occur, among others: ENOMEM Not enough memory available. BUGS The return type ought to be const char *, but is char * to avoid warn- ings in C code predating ANSI C.
