This topic discusses catalog sizing and the macros used to define the sizes.
A message catalog can be virtually any size. The maximum numbers of sets in a catalog, messages in a catalog, and bytes in a message are defined in the /usr/include/limits.h file by the following macros:
| Macro | Description |
|---|---|
| NL_SETMAX | Specifies the maximum number of set numbers that can be specified by the $set directive. If the NL_SETMAX limit is exceeded, the gencat command issues an error message and does not create or update the message catalog. |
| NL_MSGMAX | Specifies the maximum number of message ID numbers allowed by the system. If the NL_MSGMAX limit is exceeded, the gencat command issues an error message and does not create or update the message catalog. |
| NL_TEXTMAX | Specifies the maximum number of bytes a message can contain. If the NL_TEXTMAX limit is exceeded, the gencat command issues an error message and does not create or update the message catalog. |
