MoneyLayoutFromICurrency

Maps a Windows LOCALE_ICURRENCY code (0..3) onto the POSIX (precedes, sepBySpace) layout pair. Public so that the mapping can be asserted a row at a time.

Syntax

MoneyLayoutFromICurrency( v, byref precedes, byref sepBySpace )

Notes

• 0 is $1.1, 1 is 1.1$, 2 is $ 1.1, 3 is 1.1 $.
• Anything out of range falls back to 0 rather than inventing a layout.
• Compiled on every target, though only Windows ever populates a snapshot from it.
• LOCALE_ICURRENCY describes the POSITIVE layout; MoneyLayoutFromINegCurr is the negative one.

Examples

dim as boolean pre
dim as int32 sep
MoneyLayoutFromICurrency( 2, pre, sep )
print MoneyCompose( "1.1", "$", "", pre, sep, 1 )   '' $ 1.1
