If the predefined locales file entries do not meet your needs, you can either change them or add entries that define new locale names. For example, you may want to edit the locales file to do the following:
Change the language, character set, or collating sequence specified in a locale entry.
Add locale definitions, such as those needed for new language modules.
Match locale names used by non-Sybase software. For example, one Sybase predefined locale name is “fr”:
locale = fr, french, iso_1
If a non-Sybase application requires the LC_ALL environment variable to have a value of “french” and you want your Open Client and Open Server applications to use LC_ALL to localize with this locales file entry, you need to add a new entry or change the locale name specified in the existing entry as follows:
locale = french, french, iso_1
