Public data members

Name Description
CComCurrency::m_currency The CURRENCY variable created by your class instance.

Remarks

CComCurrency is a wrapper for the CURRENCY data type. CURRENCY is implemented as an 8-byte two's-complement integer value scaled by 10,000. This scaling gives a fixed-point number with 15 digits left of the decimal point and 4 digits to the right. The CURRENCY data type is useful for calculations involving money, or for any fixed-point calculations where accuracy is important.

The CComCurrency wrapper implements arithmetic, assignment, and comparison operations for this fixed-point type. The supported applications have been selected to control the rounding errors that can occur during fixed-point calculations.

The CComCurrency object provides access to the numbers on either side of the decimal point in the form of two components: an integer component, which stores the value to the left of the decimal point, and a fractional component, which stores the value to the right of the decimal point. The fractional component is stored internally as an integer value between -9999 (CY_MIN_FRACTION) and +9999 (CY_MAX_FRACTION). The method CComCurrency::GetFraction returns a value scaled by a factor of 10000 (CY_SCALE).

When specifying the integer and fractional components of a CComCurrency object, remember that the fractional component is a number in the range 0 to 9999. This consideration is important when dealing with a currency such as the US dollar. Dollar amounts are commonly expressed using only two significant digits after the decimal point. Even though the last two digits aren't displayed, they must be taken into account.

Value Possible CComCurrency assignments
$10.50 CComCurrency(10,5000) or CComCurrency(10.50)
$10.05 CComCurrency(10,500) or CComCurrency(10.05)

The values CY_MIN_FRACTION, CY_MAX_FRACTION, and CY_SCALE are defined in atlcur.h.

CComCurrency::CComCurrency

The constructor.

CComCurrency() throw();
CComCurrency(const CComCurrency& curSrc) throw();
CComCurrency(CURRENCY cySrc) throw();
CComCurrency(DECIMAL dSrc);
CComCurrency(ULONG ulSrc);
CComCurrency(USHORT usSrc);
CComCurrency(CHAR cSrc);
CComCurrency(DOUBLE dSrc);
CComCurrency(FLOAT fSrc);
CComCurrency(LONG lSrc);
CComCurrency(SHORT sSrc);
CComCurrency(BYTE bSrc);
CComCurrency(LONGLONG nInteger, SHORT nFraction);
explicit CComCurrency(LPDISPATCH pDispSrc);
explicit CComCurrency(const VARIANT& varSrc);
explicit CComCurrency(LPCWSTR szSrc);
explicit CComCurrency(LPCSTR szSrc);

Parameters

curSrc
An existing CComCurrency object.

cySrc
A variable of type CURRENCY.

bSrc, dSrc, fSrc, lSrc, sSrc, ulSrc, usSrc
The initial value given to the member variable m_currency.

cSrc
A character containing the initial value given to the member variable m_currency.

nInteger, nFraction
The initial monetary value's integer and fractional components. For more information, see the CComCurrency overview.

pDispSrc
An IDispatch pointer.

varSrc
A variable of type VARIANT. The locale of the current thread is used to perform the conversion.

szSrc
A Unicode or ANSI string containing the initial value. The locale of the current thread is used to perform the conversion.

Remarks

The constructor sets the initial value of CComCurrency::m_currency, and accepts a wide range of data types, including integers, strings, floating-point numbers, CURRENCY variables, and other CComCurrency objects. If no value is provided, m_currency is set to 0.

If there's an error, such as an overflow, the constructors lacking an empty exception specification (throw()) call AtlThrow with an HRESULT describing the error.

When using floating-point or double values to assign a value, remember that CComCurrency(10.50) is equivalent to CComCurrency(10,5000), and not CComCurrency(10,50).

CComCurrency::GetCurrencyPtr

Returns the address of an m_currency data member.

CURRENCY* GetCurrencyPtr() throw();

Return value

Returns the address of an m_currency data member

CComCurrency::GetFraction

Call this method to return the fractional component of the CComCurrency object.

SHORT GetFraction() const;

Return value

Returns the fractional component of the m_currency data member.

Remarks

The fractional component is a 4-digit integer value between -9999 (CY_MIN_FRACTION) and +9999 (CY_MAX_FRACTION). GetFraction returns this value scaled by 10000 (CY_SCALE). The values of CY_MIN_FRACTION, CY_MAX_FRACTION, and CY_SCALE are defined in atlcur.h.

Example

CComCurrency cur(10, 5000);
int nFract;
nFract = cur.GetFraction();
ATLASSERT(nFract == 5000);

CComCurrency::GetInteger

LONGLONG GetInteger() const;

Return value

Returns the integer component of the m_currency data member.

Example

CComCurrency cur(10, 5000);
LONGLONG nInteger;
