QLocale Class

Member Function Documentation

QLocale::QLocale()

Constructs a QLocale object initialized with the default locale.

If no default locale was set using setDefault(), this locale will be the same as the one returned by system().

See also setDefault() and system().

[explicit] QLocale::QLocale(const QString &name)

This is an overloaded function.

[explicit, since 6.3] QLocale::QLocale(QStringView name)

Constructs a QLocale object with the specified name.

The name has the format "language[_script][_territory][.codeset][@modifier]" or "C", where:

• language is a lowercase, two-letter, ISO 639 language code (some three-letter codes are also recognized),
• script is a capitalized, four-letter, ISO 15924 script code,
• territory is an uppercase, two-letter, ISO 3166 territory code (some numeric codes are also recognized), and
• codeset and modifier are ignored.

The separator can be either underscore '_' (U+005F, "low line") or a dash '-' (U+002D, "hyphen-minus"). If QLocale has no data for the specified combination of language, script, and territory, then it uses the most suitable match it can find instead. If the string violates the locale format, or no suitable data can be found for the specified keys, the "C" locale is used instead.

This constructor is much slower than QLocale(Language, Script, Territory) or QLocale(Language, Territory).

This function was introduced in Qt 6.3.

See also bcp47Name() and Matching combinations of language, script and territory.

QLocale::QLocale(QLocale::Language language, QLocale::Territory territory)

Constructs a QLocale object for the specified language and territory.

If there is more than one script in use for this combination, a likely script will be selected. If QLocale has no data for the specified language, the default locale is used. If QLocale has no data for the specified combination of language and territory, an alternative territory may be used instead.

See also setDefault() and Matching combinations of language, script and territory.

QLocale::QLocale(QLocale::Language language, QLocale::Script script = AnyScript, QLocale::Territory territory = AnyTerritory)

Constructs a QLocale object for the specified language, script and territory.

If QLocale does not have data for the given combination, it will find data for as good a match as it can. It falls back on the default locale if

• language is AnyLanguage and no language can be inferred from script and territory
• QLocale has no data for the language, either given as language or inferred as above.

See also setDefault() and Matching combinations of language, script and territory.

QLocale::QLocale(const QLocale &other)

Constructs a QLocale object as a copy of other.

QLocale::~QLocale()

Destructor

QString QLocale::amText() const

Returns the localized name of the "AM" suffix for times specified using the conventions of the 12-hour clock.

See also pmText().

QString QLocale::bcp47Name() const

Returns the BCP47 field names joined with dashes.

This combines as many of language, script and territory (and possibly other BCP47 fields) for this locale as are needed to uniquely specify it. Note that fields may be omitted if the Unicode consortium's Likely Subtag Rules imply the omitted fields when given those retained. See name() for how to construct a string from individual fields, if some other format is needed.

Unlike uiLanguages(), the value returned by bcp47Name() represents the locale name of the QLocale data; this need not be the language the user-interface should be in.

This function tries to conform the locale name to BCP47.

See also name(), language(), territory(), script(), and uiLanguages().

[static] QLocale QLocale::c()

Returns a QLocale object initialized to the "C" locale.

This locale is based on en_US but with various quirks of its own, such as simplified number formatting and its own date formatting. It implements the POSIX standards that describe the behavior of standard library functions of the "C" programming language.

Among other things, this means its collation order is based on the ASCII values of letters, so that (for case-sensitive sorting) all upper-case letters sort before any lower-case one (rather than each letter's upper- and lower-case forms sorting adjacent to one another, before the next letter's two forms).

See also system().

[static, since 6.3] QLocale::Language QLocale::codeToLanguage(QStringView languageCode, QLocale::LanguageCodeTypes codeTypes = AnyLanguageCode)

Returns the QLocale::Language enum corresponding to the two- or three-letter languageCode, as defined in the ISO 639 standards.

If specified, codeTypes selects which set of codes to consider for conversion. By default all codes known to Qt are considered. The codes are matched in the following order: ISO639Part1, ISO639Part2B, ISO639Part2T, ISO639Part3, LegacyLanguageCode.

If the code is invalid or not known QLocale::AnyLanguage is returned.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.3.

See also languageToCode(), codeToTerritory(), and codeToScript().

[static, since 6.1] QLocale::Script QLocale::codeToScript(QStringView scriptCode)

Returns the QLocale::Script enum corresponding to the four-letter script scriptCode, as defined in the ISO 15924 standard.

If the code is invalid or not known QLocale::AnyScript is returned.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.1.

See also scriptToCode(), codeToLanguage(), and codeToTerritory().

[static, since 6.2] QLocale::Territory QLocale::codeToTerritory(QStringView territoryCode)

Returns the QLocale::Territory enum corresponding to the two-letter or three-digit territoryCode, as defined in the ISO 3166 standard.

If the code is invalid or not known QLocale::AnyTerritory is returned.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.2.

See also territoryToCode(), codeToLanguage(), and codeToScript().

QLocale QLocale::collation() const

Returns the locale to use for collation.

The result is usually this locale; however, the system locale (which is commonly the default locale) will return the system collation locale. The result is suitable for passing to QCollator's constructor.

See also QCollator.

QString QLocale::createSeparatedList(const QStringList &list) const

Returns a string that represents a join of a given list of strings with a separator defined by the locale.

QString QLocale::currencySymbol(QLocale::CurrencySymbolFormat format = CurrencySymbol) const

Returns a currency symbol according to the format.

QString QLocale::dateFormat(QLocale::FormatType format = LongFormat) const

Returns the date format used for the current locale.

If format is LongFormat, the format will be elaborate, otherwise it will be short. For example, LongFormat for the en_US locale is dddd, MMMM d, yyyy, ShortFormat is M/d/yy.

See also QDate::toString() and QDate::fromString().

QString QLocale::dateTimeFormat(QLocale::FormatType format = LongFormat) const

Returns the date time format used for the current locale.

If format is LongFormat, the format will be elaborate, otherwise it will be short. For example, LongFormat for the en_US locale is dddd, MMMM d, yyyy h:mm:ss AP t, ShortFormat is M/d/yy h:mm AP.

See also QDateTime::toString() and QDateTime::fromString().

QString QLocale::dayName(int day, QLocale::FormatType type = LongFormat) const

Returns the localized name of the day (where 1 represents Monday, 2 represents Tuesday and so on), in the format specified by type.

For example, if the locale is en_US and day is 1, LongFormat will return Monday, ShortFormat Mon, and NarrowFormat M.

See also monthName() and standaloneDayName().

QString QLocale::decimalPoint() const

Qt::DayOfWeek QLocale::firstDayOfWeek() const

Returns the first day of the week according to the current locale.

QString QLocale::formattedDataSize(qint64 bytes, int precision = 2, QLocale::DataSizeFormats format = DataSizeIecFormat) const

Converts a size in bytes to a human-readable localized string, comprising a number and a quantified unit. The quantifier is chosen such that the number is at least one, and as small as possible. For example if bytes is 16384, precision is 2, and format is DataSizeIecFormat (the default), this function returns "16.00 KiB"; for 1330409069609 bytes it returns "1.21 GiB"; and so on. If format is DataSizeIecFormat or DataSizeTraditionalFormat, the given number of bytes is divided by a power of 1024, with result less than 1024; for DataSizeSIFormat, it is divided by a power of 1000, with result less than 1000. DataSizeIecFormat uses the new IEC standard quantifiers Ki, Mi and so on, whereas DataSizeSIFormat uses the older SI quantifiers k, M, etc., and DataSizeTraditionalFormat abuses them.

QString QLocale::groupSeparator() const

Returns the group separator character of this locale.

See also decimalPoint() and toString().

QLocale::Language QLocale::language() const

Returns the language of this locale.

See also script(), territory(), languageToString(), and bcp47Name().

[static, since 6.3] QString QLocale::languageToCode(QLocale::Language language, QLocale::LanguageCodeTypes codeTypes = AnyLanguageCode)

If specified, codeTypes selects which set of codes to consider. The first code from the set that is defined for language is returned. Otherwise, all ISO-639 codes are considered. The codes are considered in the following order: ISO639Part1, ISO639Part2B, ISO639Part2T, ISO639Part3. LegacyLanguageCode is ignored by this function.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.3.

See also codeToLanguage(), language(), name(), bcp47Name(), territoryToCode(), and scriptToCode().

Returns the language and territory of this locale as a string of the form "language_territory", where language is a lowercase, two-letter ISO 639 language code, and territory is an uppercase, two- or three-letter ISO 3166 territory code. If the locale has no specified territory, only the language name is returned.

Even if the QLocale object was constructed with an explicit script, name() will not contain it for compatibility reasons. Use bcp47Name() instead if you need a full locale name, or construct the string you want to identify a locale by from those returned by passing its language() to languageToCode() and similar for the script and territory.

See also QLocale(), language(), script(), territory(), bcp47Name(), and uiLanguages().
