gnc_account_lookup_for_register()

Account * gnc_account_lookup_for_register	(	const Account *	base_account,
		const char *	name
	)

Retrieve the account matching the given name starting from the descendants of base_account.

name is either considered to be the name of the leaf in the account tree or to be the full account path, depending on the configuration parameter general.register/show_leaf_account_names.

Parameters

base_account	The account to start the search at.
name	The name to search for.

Returns

A pointer to the account, or NULL if the account was not found.

gnc_account_or_default_currency()

gnc_commodity * gnc_account_or_default_currency	(	const Account *	account,
		gboolean *	currency_from_account_found
	)

Returns a gnc_commodity that is a currency, suitable for being a Transaction's currency.

The gnc_commodity is taken either from the current account, or from the next parent account that has a gnc_commodity that is a currency, or from gnc_default_currency().

If the given account or any of its parent account have a commodity that is a currency, it is returned and the gboolean currency_from_account_found is set to TRUE (if non-NULL). If neither this account nor any of its parent accounts have such a commodity, gnc_default_currency() is returned and the gboolean currency_from_account_found is set to FALSE (if non-NULL). This can be used to show an appropriate warning message.

If account is NULL, gnc_default_currency() is returned and currency_from_account_found is set to FALSE.

Parameters

account	The account where the currency should be looked up. May be NULL.
currency_from_account_found	A gboolean pointer that takes the output argument of whether the returned currency was found in the account. May be NULL.

Returns

A currency pointer (and never NULL).

To keep the format of the text, this function wraps the text with a BiDi isolate charatcter and a BiDi closing character.

This helps with monetary values in RTL languages that display the currency symbol.

xaccParseAmount()

gboolean xaccParseAmount	(	const char *	in_str,
		gboolean	monetary,

	)

Parses in_str to obtain a numeric result.

The routine will parse as much of in_str as it can to obtain a single number. The number is parsed using the current locale information and the 'monetary' flag. The routine will return TRUE if it successfully parsed a number and FALSE otherwise. If TRUE is returned and result is non-NULL, the value of the parsed number is stored in *result. If FALSE is returned, *result is unchanged. If TRUE is returned and endstr is non-NULL, the location of the first character in in_str not used by the parser will be returned in *endstr. If FALSE is returned and endstr is non-NULL, *endstr will point to in_str.

		const char *	ignore_list,
		gnc_numeric *	result,
		char **	endstr
	)

Converts a string to a gnc_numeric.

The caller must provide all the locale-specific information.

ignore_list is a list of characters that are completely ignored while processing the input string. If ignore_list is NULL, nothing is ignored.

Definition at line 2033 of file gnc-ui-util.cpp.

		gnc_numeric *	result,
		char **	endstr
	)

Similar to xaccParseAmountExtended, but will not automatically set a decimal point, regardless of what the user has set for this option.

Primarily meant for cases where numbers are coming into gnucash that are not typed in by the user (like via csv import).

gboolean xaccParseAmountImport	(	const char *	in_str,
		gboolean	monetary,
		gnc_numeric *	result,
		char **	endstr,
		gboolean	skip
	)

Similar to xaccParseAmount, but with two differences.

• it exposes a flag to indicate whether the locale's positive sign (or in absence the '+') character is ignored. Setting skip to TRUE will cause the function to ignore any positive sign. Setting it to FALSE, and positive signs will be treated as unrecognized characters. xaccParseAmount will run as if skip is FALSE for compatibility reasons (gnc-expression-parser depends on this behaviour).
• The other important difference with xaccParseAmount is that this function will never apply automatic decimal point logc, whereas xaccParseAmount will follow the automatic decimal point preference as set by the user.
