[1.5.25-7] locale not supported?

2008-01-23 Thread Falk Sticken
Hi
I am programming using gcc 3.4.4 under cygwin 1.5.25-7. Unfortunately
using the locale class form libstdc++ with any non-default locale (e.g.
en, en_US, de, de_DE, french) crashes my program with a
segmentation fault. Creating a locale with  as argument works so.
I tried to investigate the error with gdb, but I do not have the cygwin
sources. It seems the error is thrown at line 77 in the iostream header
file (include/c++/iostream).
Might this be a bug or are locales not supported by cygwin?
bye,
Falk Sticken

Cygwin's locale implementation comes from newlib.  It only supports the
C locale.  See man setlocale for details.

A: Yes.
 Q: Are you sure?
