GetNumberFormat
The GetNumberFormat function formats a number string as a number string customized for a
specified locale.
int GetNumberFormat(
LCID Locale,
| // locale for which number string is to be formatted
| DWORD dwFlags,
| // bit flag that controls the function's operation
| LPCTSTR lpValue,
| // pointer to input number string
| CONST NUMBERFMT *lpFormat,
| // pointer to a formatting information structure
| LPTSTR lpNumberStr,
| // pointer to output buffer
| int cchNumber
| // size of output buffer
| );
|
|
Parameters
Locale
Specifies the locale for which the number string is to be formatted. If lpFormat is NULL, the function formats the string according to the number format for
this locale. If lpFormat is not NULL, the function uses the locale only for formatting information not
specified in the NUMBERFMT structure (for example, the locale's string value for the negative sign).
This parameter can be a locale identifier created by the MAKELCID macro, or one of the following predefined values:
LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT
| Default system locale.
| LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT
| Default user locale.
|
dwFlags
Contains a bit flag that controls the operation of the function. If lpFormat is non-NULL, this parameter must be zero.
If lpFormat is NULL, you can specify the LOCALE_NOUSEROVERRIDE flag to format the string
using the system default number format for the specified locale; or you can
specify zero to format the string using any user overrides to the locale's default
number format
lpValue
Points to a null-terminated string containing the number string to format.
This string can only contain the following characters:
- Characters '0' through '9'
- One decimal point (dot) if the number is a floating-point value
- A minus sign in the first character position if the number is a negative value
All other characters are invalid. The function returns an error if the string
pointed to by lpValue deviates from these rules.
lpFormat
Pointer to a NUMBERFMT structure that contains number formatting information. All members in the
structure pointed to by lpFormat must contain appropriate values.
If lpFormat is NULL, the function uses the number format of the specified locale.
lpNumberStr
Points to a buffer to receive the formatted number string.
cchNumber
Specifies the size, in bytes (ANSI version) or characters (Unicode version),
of the lpNumberStr buffer. If cchNumber is zero, the function returns the number of bytes or characters required to
hold the formatted number string, and the buffer pointed to by lpNumberStr is not used.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is the number of bytes (ANSI
version) or characters (Unicode version) written to the buffer pointed to by lpNumberStr, or if the cchNumber parameter is zero, the number of bytes or characters required to hold the
formatted number string.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError. GetLastError may return one of the following error codes:
ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER
ERROR_INVALID FLAGS
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native.
