Follow-up Comment #7, bug #8807 (project wesnoth):
After some more digging I found this:
In language.cpp this code is executed:
142 #ifdef _WIN32
143 std::string win_locale(locale, 0, 2);
144 #include "language_win32.ii"
145 if(category == LC_MESSAGES) {
146 std::string env = "LANG=" + locale;
147 _putenv(env.c_str());
148 SetEnvironmentVariable("LANG", win_locale.c_str());
149 return;
150 }
151 locale = win_locale;
152 #endif
Runtime this results in:
_putenv("LANG=fr_FR") which is just a fancy wrapper for
SetEnvironmentVariableA("LANG", "fr_FR") and then
SetEnvironmentVariableA("LANG", "French")
Unfortunately there are no comments and it's a mystery what this code is
supposed to do. Why the _putenv call? It gets ignored. I've tried to skip
either call, but it doesn't result in any interesting effects, other than that
if you skip the second call you can see the environment variable LANG change
to fr_FR instead of French. And what's that return statement doing there?
