The following table shows the locales that could be available on your system, and the code pages that are supported for each locale. COBOL for AIX supports the locales that are available on the system at compile time and at run time.
The locales that are available on the system are normally located at /usr/lib/nls/loc.
| Locale name1 | Language2 | Country or region3 | ASCII-based code pages4 | EBCDIC code pages5 | Language group |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| any | UTF-8 | EBCDIC code pages that are applicable to the locale are based on the language and COUNTRY portions of the locale name regardless of the code-page value of the locale. | |||
