I am trying to get the symbols of the currencies based on their Locale. But instead of returning a symbol, it is returning the code. I have a snippet:
import java.util.Currency;
import java.util.Locale;
public class CurrencyFormat
{
public void displayCurrencySymbols()
{
Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(Locale.US);
System.out.println("United States: " + currency.getSymbol());
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
new CurrencyFormat().displayCurrencySymbols();
}
}
For Locale.US it is giving symbol $
but If I replace
Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(Locale.US);
with
Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(Locale.GERMANY);
Then instead of symbol it is giving the country code. Why is this and how we can get the symbols?
EDIT : After looking some answer I would like to clear that setting some specific default local is not a solution as I need all the avalaible sign displayed at once.
e.g.
Locale.setDefault(Locale.UK);
will give me the euro sign but for doller it will give the code instead of doller sign($).
