Global Language Support (GLS)

Informix database server products provide the Global Language Support (GLS) feature. In addition to U.S. ASCII English, GLS allows you to work in other locales and use non-ASCII characters in SQL data and identifiers. You can use the GLS feature to conform to the customs of a specific locale. The locale files contain culture-specific information, such as money and date formats and collation orders. For more GLS information, see the IBM Informix: GLS User's Guide.
