std::locale imbue( const std::locale & loc );
Replaces the current locale. Effectively calls ios_base::imbue(loc) and if there is an associated stream buffer (rdbuf() != 0), then calls rdbuf()->pubimbue(loc).

loc
-
the new locale

[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <locale> #include <sstream> int main() { std::istringstream iss; iss.imbue(std::locale ("en_US.UTF8")); std::cout << "Current locale: " << iss.getloc().name() << '\n'; iss.imbue(std::locale ()); std::cout << "Global locale : " << iss.getloc().name() << '\n'; }
Output:
Current locale: en_US.UTF8 Global locale : C
