=head1 NAME
Locale::Codes::LangVar - standard codes for language variation identification
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangVar;
$lvar = code2langvar('acm'); # $lvar gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic'
$code = langvar2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm'
@codes = all_langvar_codes();
@names = all_langvar_names();
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides access to standard codes
used for identifying language variations, such as those as defined in
the IANA language registry.
Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA
language registry codes will be used.
=head1 SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying
language variations. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a
constant that is automatically exported by this module.
For example, the two are equivalent:
$lvar = code2langvar('arevela','alpha');
$lvar = code2langvar('arevela',LOCALE_LANGVAR_ALPHA);
The codesets currently supported are:
=over 4
=item B<alpha>
This is the set of alphanumeric codes from the IANA
language registry, such as 'arevela' for Eastern Armenian.
This code set is identified with the symbol C<LOCALE_LANGVAR_ALPHA>.
This is the default code set.
