Here's what I've been trying:

...
printf("bindtextdomain(): %s \n", bindtextdomain("myDomain",
"/root/progs/MessageCatalogs"));
printf("textdomain(): %s \n", textdomain("myDomain"));
printf("gettext(): %s \n", gettext("Long"));
...

I've got a valid .mo file in the directory
"/root/progs/MessageCatalogs". besides, I've also set the environment
varialble LC_MESSAGES to "myDomain".

The entry in the corresponding .po file is as follows:
(The .po file is generated after compiling the .mo file using msgfmt)
msgid "Long"
msgstr "LONG"

The output is as follows:
bindtextdomain(): /root/progs/MessageCatalogs
textdomain(): myDomain
gettext(): Long

I was expecting a "LONG" instead of "Long".

Thanks in advance,
Neeraj
