Markus, > Carl, in some EU-but-not-Euro countries, one sometimes needs to > work with Euro currencies and format currency values. I am dense sometimes but I see the problem. You want to be able to display the Euro with 2 decimal places using the English currency positioning and delimiters. Fortunately the English could use ca_ES_EURO just for currency. It looks like ICU is not well designed for listing foreign currency. I guess that there could be a special unum_open that took two locales. It would take the CurrencyElements from one, and build a pattern from the second using the precision from the first. This is certainly not a consideration for ICU 2.0. I have no idea if there is enough use to consider for other releases. Carl |
