This section provides information about the globalization checklist and multicultural support subroutines.

Globalization checklist
The globalization checklist provides a way to analyze a program for translation and multicultural support dependencies. By going through this list, one can determine what, if any, globalization functions must be considered. This is useful for both programming and testing. If you identify a set of globalization items that a program depends on, a test strategy can be developed. This facilitates a common approach to testing all programs.
List of multicultural support subroutines
The multicultural support subroutines are used for handling locale-specific information, manipulating wide characters and multibyte characters, and using regular expressions.
