NAME
moneypunct, moneypunct_byname
- Monetary punctuation facets.
SYNOPSIS
#include <locale>
class money_base;
template <class charT, bool International = false>
class moneypunct;
DESCRIPTION
The moneypunct_facets include formatting specifications and punctuation
character for monetary values. The moneypunct facet is used with the
"C" locale, while the_moneypunct_byname facet is used with named
locales.
The facet is used by money_put_for outputting formatted representations
of monetary values and by_money_get for reading these strings back in.
money_base includes a structure, pattern, that specifies the order of
syntactic elements in a monetary value and enumeration values repre‐
senting those elements. The pattern struct includes a simple array of
characters, field. Each index in field is taken up by an enumeration
value indicating the location of a syntactic element. The enumeration
values are described below:
FORMAT FLAG MEANING
none No grouping separator
space Use space for grouping separator
symbol Currency symbol
sign Sign of monetary value
value The monetary value itself
The do_pos_format and do_neg_format member functions of moneypunct both
return the pattern type. See the description of these functions for
further elaboration.

TYPES
char_type
Type of character the facet is instantiated on.
string_type
Type of character string returned by member functions.
CONSTRUCTORS
explicit moneypunct(size_t refs = 0)
Constructs a moneypunct facet. If the refs argument is 0, then destruction
of the object is delegated to the locale, or locales, containing it. This
allows the user to ignore lifetime management issues. On the other hand, if
refs is 1, then the object must be explicitly deleted; the locale does not
do so. In this case, the object can be maintained across the lifetime of
multiple locales.
explicit moneypunct_byname(const char* name,
size_t refs = 0);
Constructs a moneypunct_byname facet. Uses the named locale specified by
the name argument. The refs argument serves the same purpose as it does for
the moneypunct constructor.
DESTRUCTORS
~moneypunct(); // virtual and protected
Destroys the facet.
STATIC MEMBERS
static locale::id id;
Unique identifier for this type of facet.
static const bool intl = Intl;
true for international representation, false otherwise.
PUBLIC MEMBER FUNCTIONS
The public members of the moneypunct and_moneypunct_byname facets
include an interface to protected members. Each public member xxx has a
corresponding virtual protected member do_xxx. All work is delegated to
these protected members. For instance, the long version of the public
decimal_point function simply calls its protected cousin do_deci‐
mal_point.
string_type curr_symbol() const;
charT decimal_point() const;
int frac_digits() const;
string grouping() const;
pattern neg_format() const;
string_type negative_sign() const;
pattern pos_format() const;
string_type positive_sign() const;
charT thousands_sep() const;
Each public member function xxx simply calls the corresponding protected
do_xxx function.
PROTECTED MEMBER FUNCTIONS
virtual string_type
do_curr_symbol() const;
Returns a string to use as the currency symbol.
virtual charTdo_decimal_point() const;
Returns the radix separator to use if fractional digits are allowed (see
do_frac_digits).
virtual intdo_frac_digits() const;
Returns the number of digits in the fractional part of the monetary repre‐
sentation.
virtual stringdo_grouping() const;
Returns a string in which each character is used as an integer value to
represent the number of digits in a particular grouping, starting with the
rightmost group. A group is simply the digits between adjacent thousands'
separators. Each group at a position larger than the size of the string
gets the same value as the last element in the string. If a value is less
than or equal to zero, or equal to CHAR_MAX, then the size of that group is
unlimited. moneypunct returns an empty string, indicating no grouping.
virtual string_typedo_negative_sign() const;
A string to use as the negative sign. The first character of this string is
placed in the position indicated by the format pattern (see do_neg_format);
the rest of the characters, if any, are placed after all other parts of the
monetary value.
virtual patterndo_neg_format() const;
virtual patterndo_pos_format() const;
Returns a pattern object specifying the location of the various syntactic
elements in a monetary representation. The enumeration values symbol, sign,
and value appear exactly once in this pattern, with the remaining location
taken by either none or space. none never occupies the first position in
the pattern and space never occupies the first or the last position. Beyond
these restrictions, elements may appear in any order. moneypunct returns
{symbol, sign, none, value}.
virtual string_typedo_positive_sign() const;
A string to use as the positive sign. The first character of this string is
placed in the position indicated by the format pattern (see do_pos_format);
the rest of the characters, if any, are placed after all other parts of the
monetary value.
virtual charTdo_thousands_sep() const;
Returns the grouping separator if grouping is allowed (see do_grouping).
EXAMPLE
//
// moneypun.cpp
//
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
int main ()
{
using namespace std;
locale loc;
// Get a moneypunct facet
const moneypunct<char,false>& mp =
#ifndef _RWSTD_NO_TEMPLATE_ON_RETURN_TYPE
use_facet<moneypunct<char,false> >(loc);
#else
use_facet(loc,(moneypunct<char,false>*)0);
#endif
cout << "Decimal point = "
<< mp.decimal_point() << endl;
cout << "Thousands separator = "
<< mp.thousands_sep() << endl;
cout << "Currency symbol = "
<< mp.curr_symbol() << endl;
cout << "Negative Sign = "
<< mp.negative_sign() << endl;
cout << "Digits after decimal = "
<< mp.frac_digits() << endl;
return 0;
}
