NAME

       Locale::Language - module for dealing with language code sets


SYNOPSIS

          use Locale::Language;

          $name = code2language(CODE);
          $code = language2code(NAME);

          @codes   = all_language_codes();
          @names   = all_language_names();


DESCRIPTION

       This module provides access to language code sets.

       Please refer to the Locale::Codes::Types document for a description of
       the code sets available.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
       specifies the code set to use. The code set can be specified using the
       name of a code set, or the perl constant specified in the above
       document.  If not specified, the default code set will be used.


ROUTINES

       All routines in this module call the appropriate method in the
       Locale::Codes module, using an object of type: language Please refer to
       the documentation of the Locale::Codes module for details about each
       function.

       The following functions are exported automatically:

       code2language(CODE [,CODESET] [,'retired'])
           See code2name in Locale::Codes

       language2code(NAME [,CODESET] [,'retired'])
           See name2code in Locale::Codes

       language_code2code(CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2)
           See code2code in Locale::Codes

       all_language_codes([CODESET] [,'retired'])
           See all_codes in Locale::Codes

       all_language_names([CODESET] [,'retired'])
           See all_names in Locale::Codes

       The following functions are not exported and must be called fully
       qualified with the package name:

       Locale::Language::show_errors(FLAG)
           By default, invalid input will produce empty results, but no
           errors.  By passing in a non-zero value of FLAG, errors will be
           produced.

           See show_errors in Locale::Codes but note that the default for the
           non-OO modules are to NOT produce errors.

       Locale::Language::rename_language(CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET])
           See rename_code in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::add_language(CODE ,NAME [,CODESET])
           See add_code in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::delete_language(CODE [,CODESET])
           See delete_code in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::add_language_alias(NAME ,NEW_NAME)
           See add_alias in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::delete_language_alias(NAME)
           See delete_alias in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::rename_language_code(CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET])
           See replace_code in Locale::Codes

       Locale::Language::add_language_code_alias(CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET])
