locale strips trailing currency_symbol characters
-------------------------------------------------
Key: STDCXX-371
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-371
Project: C++ Standard Library
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Utilities
Affects Versions: 4.1.3
Reporter: Martin Sebor
Priority: Minor
When printing out the contents of the LC_MONETARY section the locale utility
seems to strip all but the first character from the currency_symbol (see the
test case below). While this doesn't appear to affect localized programs (since
the locale generated by the localedef utility is correct) it is causing
failures in a number of locale tests (since they use a series of localedef and
locale commands to verify that the same locale can be generated from the
original sources as from the sources produced by the locale utility run on the
generated locale).
$ cat foo.src && ./localedef -w -c -f
/nfs/devco/sebor/stdcxx/etc/nls/charmaps/ISO-8859-1 -i foo.src foo &&
LC_MONETARY=./foo ./locale -ck LC_MONETARY | grep currency_symbol && strings
foo/LC_MONETARY
LC_MONETARY
int_curr_symbol "ABCD"
currency_symbol "klmn"
END LC_MONETARY
currency_symbol="k"
ABCD
klmn
