DecimalFormatSymbols

public class DecimalFormatSymbols
extends Object implements Cloneable, Serializable

java.lang.Object
↳	java.text.DecimalFormatSymbols

This class represents the set of symbols (such as the decimal separator, the grouping separator, and so on) needed by DecimalFormat to format numbers. DecimalFormat creates for itself an instance of DecimalFormatSymbols from its locale data. If you need to change any of these symbols, you can get the DecimalFormatSymbols object from your DecimalFormat and modify it.

Public constructors

DecimalFormatSymbols

public DecimalFormatSymbols ()

Create a DecimalFormatSymbols object for the default FORMAT locale. It is recommended that the getInstance method is used instead.

This is equivalent to calling DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.getDefault(Locale.Category.FORMAT)).

See also:

DecimalFormatSymbols

public DecimalFormatSymbols (Locale locale)

Create a DecimalFormatSymbols object for the given locale. It is recommended that the getInstance method is used instead. If the specified locale contains the Locale.UNICODE_LOCALE_EXTENSION for the numbering system, the instance is initialized with the specified numbering system if the JRE implementation supports it. For example,

 NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.forLanguageTag("th-TH-u-nu-thai"))

This may return a NumberFormat instance with the Thai numbering system, instead of the Latin numbering system.

Parameters
`locale`	`Locale`: the desired locale

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `locale` is null

Public methods
