Hi,
Iam trying to compile a simple program to print euro symbol on redhat linux system.
My system details:
GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4, by Roland McGrath et al.
Compiled by GNU CC version 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4).
Compiled on a Linux 2.4.20 system on 2004-12-20.
my c program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
int main() {
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "");
printf("%lc", 0x20ac);
return 0;
}
(removed additional checks to reduce length of mail)
[root at hyrlnx01 test]# LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 ./a.out
Euro sign: Γé¼
[root at hyrlnx01 test]# LANG=de_DE at euro ./a.out
Euro sign: ñ
I have modified the file /etc/sysconfig/i18n to contain following lines
SYSFONT=lat0-16
SYSFONTACM=iso15
But Iam getting the same output.
Do I need to install any other packages ?
Do I need to modify any other configuration files ?
Please clarify and advise
Regards
Sudhakar
