Use std::locale
with std::stringstream
#include <iomanip>
#include <locale>
template<class T>
std::string FormatWithCommas(T value)
{
std::stringstream ss;
ss.imbue(std::locale(""));
ss << std::fixed << value;
return ss.str();
}
Disclaimer: Portability might be an issue and you should probably look at which locale is used when ""
is passed
