The PercentDecimalDigits property is used with the "P" standard format string without a precision specifier in numeric formatting operations. It defines the default number of fractional digits that appear after the decimal separator. This value is overridden if a precision specifier is used. For more information, see Standard Numeric Format Strings.
The following example demonstrates the effect of changing the PercentDecimalDigits property.
using namespace System; using namespace System::Globalization; int main() { // Gets a NumberFormatInfo associated with the en-US culture. CultureInfo^ MyCI = gcnew CultureInfo( "en-US",false ); NumberFormatInfo^ nfi = MyCI->NumberFormat; // Displays a negative value with the default number of decimal digits (2). Double myInt = 0.1234; Console::WriteLine( myInt.ToString( "P", nfi ) ); // Displays the same value with four decimal digits. nfi->PercentDecimalDigits = 4; Console::WriteLine( myInt.ToString( "P", nfi ) ); } /* This code produces the following output. 12.34 % 12.3400 % */
