The radix character (i.e. '.' or ',') is defined by the current locale. The default locale (at least for Windows systems) is "C", which defines '.' as radix character.

You can set the current locale for a C/C++ program using the setlocale function.

To set the locale to the current system/user locale, you can use the following statement:

#include <locale.h>
setlocale(LC_ALL, ".OCP");

See here (cf. the examples on the linked page...) for more information about setlocale
