Loading the Message Database

Server automatically loads the correct message database, which is located in the locale/<ll_TT.encoding> directory.

For example, if you work in an ISO 8859-1 French environment loading the file data/util.dbm will automatically look for a file in the following directory on Unix® systems:

data/locale/fr_FR.ISO-8859-1/my-file.dbm

and in the following directory on Windows® systems:

data/locale/fr_FR.windows-1252/my-file.dbm

Note that Server will use the environment variables $ILSHOME and $ILSPATH in order to locate the .dbm files.
