Java: Currency to Locale Mapping Possible?

Question

I have a value stored in a DB correlating to a monetary amount, say 10.0. I also have access to the Currency/CurrencyCode. How can I use NumberFormat/DecimalFormat/(other?)

Answer 1

I would say that if your database is storing a currency value it should be hanging onto the units at the same time. It sounds like you're doing that now. Can you add the Locale to the database at the same time? Could be a decent solution.
