Handle locale-specific data

Each HCL OneDB™ SQL API product contains a processor to process source files that have embedded SQL and preprocessor statements.

The processor, esql, processes C source files.

The processors for products use operating-system files in the following situations:
  • They write language-specific source files (.c) when they process the source file.

    The processors use the client code set (that the client locale specifies) to generate the file names for these language-specific files.

  • They read source files (.ec) that the user creates.

    The processors use the client code set to interpret the contents of these source files.

Use the CLIENT_LOCALE environment variable to specify the client locale.
