std::moneypunct::thousands_sep

char_type thousands_sep() const;
Return thousands separator character
Returns the character used to represent the digit group separator in monetary expressions when do_grouping specifies a digit grouping pattern.

Internally, this function simply calls the virtual protected member do_thousands_sep, which for the standard specializations returns the proper character.

Parameters

none

Return value

The character used as digit group separator in monetary expressions.
Member type char_type is the facet's character type (defined as an alias of moneypunct's first template parameter, charT).

Possible output:

moneypunct in locale "C":
decimal_point:

curr_symbol:
positive_sign:
negative_sign: -
frac_digits: 0
pos_format: symbol sign none value
neg_format: symbol sign none value
