QUERYLOCALE(3)                          BSD Library Functions Manual                          QUERYLOCALE(3)

NAME
     querylocale -- Get locale name for a specified category

SYNOPSIS
     #include <xlocale.h>

     const char *
     querylocale(int mask, locale_t loc);

DESCRIPTION
     Returns the name of the locale for the category specified by mask.  The mask is scanned starting at the
     least significant bit, until the first set bit is found. This happens to scan the categories alphabeti-cally, alphabetically,
     cally, not including LC_ALL_MASK, but it is best to specify one category at a time.  The available cat-egories categories
     egories are documented in xlocale(3) and newlocale(3).
