CATOPEN(3) Library Functions Manual CATOPEN(3)

catopenopen message catalog

library “libc”

#include <nl_types.h>

nl_catd
catopen(const char *name, int oflag);

The () function opens the message catalog specified by name and returns a message catalog descriptor. If name contains a ‘/’ then name specifies the full pathname for the message catalog, otherwise the value of the environment variable NLSPATH is used with name substituted for %N.

The oflag argument is reserved for future use and should be set to zero.

Upon successful completion, catopen() returns a message catalog descriptor. Otherwise, (nl_catd) -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
