Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help me with something that I think should have been easy for me to find.

I'm coding a C++ program. I have a need to format a number for currency display.

In Java, I would use this for a quick and dirty way of getting US dollars (not checking for international stuff).

NumberFormat currency = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
Then wherever I needed too I could.
currency.format(myNumericVariable) into a section of code that displayed the return value as nice nifty US dollars complete
with $, decimal point and ,'s as appropriate.

=====

I can't seem to find something similar as part of the standard c/c++ libraries, which I find hard to believe. I'm sure I'm just not searching for the right terms, "NumberFormat", "currency", "money", "formatting" etc..

Anyway, pointers appreciated..

Doug T
