Description:
------------
setlocale works only partially.

Following code won't work:

$ulang="zh_CN";
$ulang_1=$ulang;
putenv ("LC_ALL=$ulang_1");
$locale=setlocale(LC_ALL,$ulang_1);

The $locale is always null;

However, following works:

$ulang="zh_CN";
putenv ("LC_ALL=$ulang");
$locale=setlocale(LC_ALL,$ulang);

where $locale returns correct "zh_CN"

sorry, this one won't work:

class test {
var $locale;
   
    tese() {
       $this->locale='zh_CN';
    }
    function getLocale() {
      return $this->locale;
   }
}

$test = new Test;

$ulang=$test->getLocale();
putenv ("LC_ALL=$ulang");
$locale=setlocale(LC_ALL,$ulang);

The $locale is always null;

The other cases it works.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

var $locale;
