All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, Serializable

public final class DecimalFormatSymbols

extends Object

implements Cloneable, Serializable

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.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if currency is null

Since:

1.4
