numpunct Class

 

The latest version of this topic can be found at numpunct Class.

A template class that describes an object that can serve as a local facet to describe the sequences of type CharType used to represent information about the formatting and punctuation of numeric and Boolean expressions.

Syntax

template <class CharType>  
class numpunct : public locale::facet;  

Parameters

CharType
The type used within a program to encode characters in a locale.

Remarks

As with any locale facet, the static object ID has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

Constructors

numpunct The constructor for objects of type numpunct.

Typedefs

char_type A type that is used to describe a character used by a locale.
string_type A type that describes a string containing characters of type CharType.

Member Functions

decimal_point Returns a locale-specific element to use as a decimal point.
do_decimal_point A protected virtual member function that is called to return a locale-specific element to use as a decimal point.
do_falsename A protected virtual member function that is called to return a string to use as a text representation of the value false.
do_grouping A protected virtual member function that is called to return a locale-specific rule for determining how digits are grouped to the left of any decimal point.
do_thousands_sep A protected virtual member function that is called to return a locale-specific element to use as a thousands separator.
do_truename A protected virtual member function that is called to return a string to use as a text representation of the value true.

numpunct::numpunct

The constructor for objects of type numpunct.

explicit numpunct(size_t _Refs = 0);

Parameters

_Refs
Integer value used to specify the type of memory management for the object.

Remarks

The possible values for the _Refs parameter and their significance are:

  • 0: The lifetime of the object is managed by the locales that contain it.

  • 1: The lifetime of the object must be manually managed.

  • > 0: These values are not defined.

No direct examples are possible, because the destructor is protected.

The constructor initializes its base object with locale::facet( _Refs).
