Remove currency symbol and text

[Antonio R. de Oliveira]

I want to remove symbols and text from formatted String when using NumberFormat.getCurrencyFormat().format() with internationalization.

Examples after remove:

Currency  - Formated  = Without 

US:        US$100.15  = 100.15

BRL:     100,15R$    = 100,15

Euro:    100,15€     =  100,15

Thanks.

Couldn't you just parse the string using getCurrencyFormat().parse() to get a double value for it and then format it again using getDecimalFormat().format() ?

Not, just need to format like previous examples.

A possible solution:

String data = "US$100.15\n" +
"100,15R$\n" +
"100,15�\n";
String res = data.replaceAll("[^\n\\d,.]+", "");
