IBM User Guide for Java V7 on Windows > Run Java applications



Euro symbol support

The IBM SDK and Runtime Environment set the Euro as the default currency for those countries in the European Monetary Union (EMU) for dates on or after 1 January, 2002. From 1 January 2008, Cyprus and Malta also have the Euro as the default currency.

To use the old national currency, specify –Duser.variant=PREEURO on the Java™ command line.

If you are running the UK, Danish, or Swedish locales and want to use the Euro, specify –Duser.variant=EURO on the Java command line.
