SysUtils.StrToCurrDef Function

Converts a string to a System::Currency value, with error default.

Pascal
function StrToCurrDef(const S: string; const Default: Currency): Currency; overload;
function StrToCurrDef(const S: string; const Default: Currency; const FormatSettings: TFormatSettings): Currency; overload;
C++
Currency StrToCurrDef(const AnsiString S, const Currency Default);
Currency StrToCurrDef(const AnsiString S, const Currency Default, const TFormatSettings FormatSettings);

Call StrToCurrDef to convert a string that represents a floating-point value to the corresponding System::Currency value. The source string, S, must consist of an optional sign (+ or -), a string of digits with an optional decimal point, and an optional 'E' or 'e' followed by a signed integer. Leading and trailing blanks are ignored.  

Thousand separators and currency symbols are not allowed in the string. If the string doesn't contain a valid value, StrToCurrDef returns Default. 

The first form of StrToCurrDef is not thread-safe, because it uses localization information contained in global variables. The second form of StrToCurrDef, which is thread-safe, refers to localization information contained in the FormatSettings parameter. Before calling the thread-safe form of StrToCurrDef, you must populate FormatSettings with localization information. To populate FormatSettings with a set of default locale values, call GetLocaleFormatSettings
