It should be easy to trim down the test program, to something like this:
#include <locale.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int
main ()
{
if (setlocale (LC_ALL, "ar_SA.ISO-8859-1") != NULL)
{
printf ("%s\n", setlocale (LC_ALL, NULL));
printf ("%s\n", setlocale (LC_CTYPE, NULL));
}
return 0;
}
The next step is to get a list of the supported locales, either
through "locale -a" or by looking in system locations or in the source
code of the setlocale function.
From this step, infer whether the problem is that "ISO-8859-1" is not
supported as an encoding in general, or whether it's the combination of
Arabic and ISO-8859-1 that is not supported.
Then we should be able to report a bug to the Haiku people.
