=head1 NAME
locale - Perl pragma to use or avoid POSIX locales for built-in operations
=head1 WARNING
DO NOT USE this pragma in scripts that have multiple
L<threads|threads> active. The locale is not local to a single thread.
Another thread may change the locale at any time, which could cause at a
minimum that a given thread is operating in a locale it isn't expecting
to be in. On some platforms, segfaults can also occur. The locale
change need not be explicit; some operations cause perl to change the
locale itself. You are vulnerable simply by having done a C<"use
locale">.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
@x = sort @y; # Native-platform/Unicode code point sort order
{
use locale;
@x = sort @y; # Locale-defined sort order
}
@x = sort @y; # Native-platform/Unicode code point sort order
# again
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This pragma tells the compiler to enable (or disable) the use of POSIX
locales for built-in operations (for example, LC_CTYPE for regular
expressions, LC_COLLATE for string comparison, and LC_NUMERIC for number
formatting). Each "use locale" or "no locale"
affects statements to the end of the enclosing BLOCK.
See L<perllocale> for more detailed information on how Perl supports
locales.
On systems that don't have locales, this pragma will cause your operations
to behave as if in the "C" locale; attempts to change the locale will fail.
