Locale::Constants

SYNOPSIS

  1.     use Locale::Constants;
  2.     
  3.     $codeset = LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2;

DESCRIPTION

Locale::Constants defines symbols which are used in the four modules from the Locale-Codes distribution:

  1. 	Locale::Language
  2. 	Locale::Country
  3. 	Locale::Currency
  4. 	Locale::Script

Note: at the moment only Locale::Country and Locale::Script support more than one code set.

The symbols defined are used to specify which codes you want to be used:

  1. 	LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2
  2. 	LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_3
  3. 	LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC

You shouldn't have to use this module directly yourself - it is used by the three Locale modules, which in turn export the symbols.

KNOWN BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

None at the moment.
