public final class Currency extends Object implements Serializable
Represents a currency. Currencies are identified by their ISO 4217 currency codes. Visit the ISO web site for more information, including a table of currency codes.The class is designed so that there's never more than one
Currency
instance for any given currency. Therefore, there's no public constructor. You obtain aCurrency
instance using thegetInstance
methods.Users can supersede the Java runtime currency data by creating a properties file named
<JAVA_HOME>/lib/currency.properties
. The contents of the properties file are key/value pairs of the ISO 3166 country codes and the ISO 4217 currency data respectively. The value part consists of three ISO 4217 values of a currency, i.e., an alphabetic code, a numeric code, and a minor unit. Those three ISO 4217 values are separated by commas. The lines which start with '#'s are considered comment lines. For example,#Sample currency properties
JP=JPZ,999,0will supersede the currency data for Japan.
