std::numpunct

The facet std::numpunct encapsulates numeric punctuation preferences. Stream I/O operations use std::numpunct through std::num_get and std::num_put for parsing numeric input and formatting numeric output.

# Declarations

template< class CharT >
class numpunct;

# Example

#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
 
struct french_bool : std::numpunct<char>
{
    string_type do_truename() const override { return "vrai"; }
    string_type do_falsename() const override { return "faux"; }
};
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "default locale: "
              << std::boolalpha << true << ", " << false << '\n';
    std::cout.imbue(std::locale(std::cout.getloc(), new french_bool));
    std::cout << "locale with modified numpunct: "
              << std::boolalpha << true << ", " << false << '\n';
}
