Enumeration Type Documentation

enum UCurrCurrencyType

Selector constants for ucurr_openCurrencies().

See also:
ucurr_openCurrencies
Stable:
ICU 3.2
Enumerator:
UCURR_ALL  Select all ISO-4217 currency codes.

Stable:
ICU 3.2
UCURR_COMMON  Select only ISO-4217 commonly used currency codes.

These currencies can be found in common use, and they usually have bank notes or coins associated with the currency code. This does not include fund codes, precious metals and other various ISO-4217 codes limited to special financial products.

Stable:
ICU 3.2
UCURR_UNCOMMON  Select ISO-4217 uncommon currency codes.

These codes respresent fund codes, precious metals and other various ISO-4217 codes limited to special financial products. A fund code is a monetary resource associated with a currency.

Stable:
ICU 3.2
UCURR_DEPRECATED  Select only deprecated ISO-4217 codes.

These codes are no longer in general public use.

Stable:
ICU 3.2
UCURR_NON_DEPRECATED  Select only non-deprecated ISO-4217 codes.

These codes are in general public use.

Stable:
ICU 3.2

enum UCurrNameStyle

Selector constants for ucurr_getName().

See also:
ucurr_getName
Stable:
ICU 2.6
Enumerator:
UCURR_SYMBOL_NAME  Selector for ucurr_getName indicating a symbolic name for a currency, such as "$" for USD.

Stable:
ICU 2.6
UCURR_LONG_NAME  Selector for ucurr_getName indicating the long name for a currency, such as "US Dollar" for USD.

Function Documentation

int32_t ucurr_forLocale ( const char *  locale,
UChar *  buff,
int32_t  buffCapacity,
UErrorCode ec 
)

Finds a currency code for the given locale.

Parameters:
locale the locale for which to retrieve a currency code. Currency can be specified by the "currency" keyword in which case it overrides the default currency code
buff fill in buffer. Can be NULL for preflighting.
buffCapacity capacity of the fill in buffer. Can be 0 for preflighting. If it is non-zero, the buff parameter must not be NULL.
ec error code
Returns:
length of the currency string. It should always be 3. If 0, currency couldn't be found or the input values are invalid.
Stable:
ICU 2.8

int32_t ucurr_getDefaultFractionDigits ( const UChar *  currency,
UErrorCode ec 
)

Returns the number of the number of fraction digits that should be displayed for the given currency.

Parameters:
currency null-terminated 3-letter ISO 4217 code
ec input-output error code
Returns:
a non-negative number of fraction digits to be displayed, or 0 if there is an error
Stable:
ICU 3.0

const UChar* ucurr_getName ( const UChar *  currency,
const char *  locale,
UCurrNameStyle  nameStyle,
UBool isChoiceFormat,
int32_t len,
UErrorCode ec 
)

Returns the display name for the given currency in the given locale.

For example, the display name for the USD currency object in the en_US locale is "$".

Parameters:
currency null-terminated 3-letter ISO 4217 code
locale locale in which to display currency
nameStyle selector for which kind of name to return
isChoiceFormat fill-in set to TRUE if the returned value is a ChoiceFormat pattern; otherwise it is a static string
len fill-in parameter to receive length of result
ec error code
Returns:
pointer to display string of 'len' UChars. If the resource data contains no entry for 'currency', then 'currency' itself is returned. If *isChoiceFormat is TRUE, then the result is a ChoiceFormat pattern. Otherwise it is a static string.
Stable:
ICU 2.6

double ucurr_getRoundingIncrement ( const UChar *  currency,
UErrorCode ec 
)

Returns the rounding increment for the given currency, or 0.0 if no rounding is done by the currency.

Parameters:
currency null-terminated 3-letter ISO 4217 code
ec input-output error code
Returns:
the non-negative rounding increment, or 0.0 if none, or 0.0 if there is an error
Stable:
ICU 3.0

UEnumeration* ucurr_openISOCurrencies ( uint32_t  currType,
UErrorCode pErrorCode 
)

Provides a UEnumeration object for listing ISO-4217 codes.

Parameters:
currType You can use one of several UCurrCurrencyType values for this variable. You can also | (or) them together to get a specific list of currencies. Most people will want to use the (UCURR_CURRENCY|UCURR_NON_DEPRECATED) value to get a list of current currencies.
pErrorCode Error code
Stable:
ICU 3.2

UCurrRegistryKey ucurr_register ( const UChar *  isoCode,
const char *  locale,
UErrorCode status 
)

Register an (existing) ISO 4217 currency code for the given locale.

Only the country code and the two variants EURO and PRE_EURO are recognized.

Parameters:
isoCode the three-letter ISO 4217 currency code
locale the locale for which to register this currency code
status the in/out status code
Returns:
a registry key that can be used to unregister this currency code, or NULL if there was an error.
Stable:
ICU 2.6

UBool ucurr_unregister ( UCurrRegistryKey  key,
UErrorCode status 
)

Unregister the previously-registered currency definitions using the URegistryKey returned from ucurr_register.

Key becomes invalid after a successful call and should not be used again. Any currency that might have been hidden by the original ucurr_register call is restored.

Parameters:
key the registry key returned by a previous call to ucurr_register
status the in/out status code, no special meanings are assigned
Returns:
TRUE if the currency for this key was successfully unregistered
Stable:
ICU 2.6
