Interface Summary

Interface	Description
CurrencySupplier	Represents a supplier of CurrencyUnit-valued results.
CurrencyUnit	A unit of currency.
MonetaryAmount	Interface defining a monetary amount.
MonetaryAmountFactory<T extends MonetaryAmount>	Factory for MonetaryAmount instances for a given type.
MonetaryOperator	Represents an operation on a single MonetaryAmount that produces a result of type MonetaryAmount.
MonetaryQuery<R>	Strategy for querying a monetary amount.
MonetaryRounding	Interface representing a monetary rounding.
NumberSupplier	Represents a supplier of NumberValue-valued results.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractContext	Represents a general context of data targeting an item of type Q.
AbstractContextBuilder<B extends AbstractContextBuilder,C extends AbstractContext>	This interface defines the common generic parts of a query.
AbstractQuery	Represents a general context of data targeting an item of type Q.
AbstractQueryBuilder<B extends AbstractQueryBuilder,C extends AbstractQuery>	This abstract class defines the common generic parts of a query.
CurrencyContext	This class models the attributable context of CurrencyUnit instances.
CurrencyContextBuilder	Builder class for creating new instances of CurrencyContext adding detailed information about a CurrencyUnit instance.
CurrencyQuery	This class models a query for accessing instances of CurrencyUnit.
CurrencyQueryBuilder	Builder for queries for accessing CurrencyUnit instances.
Monetary	Factory singleton for CurrencyUnit, MonetaryAmount and MonetaryRounding instances as provided by the different registered SPI instances.
MonetaryAmountFactoryQuery	Query to lookup instances of MonetaryAmountFactory, which are determined by the (minimal) capabilities required by the give use case.
MonetaryAmountFactoryQueryBuilder	Builder class for creating new instances of MonetaryAmountFactoryQuery that can be passed to access MonetaryAmountFactory instances using a possible complex query.
MonetaryContext	This class models the meta data (mostly the numeric capabilities) of a MonetaryAmount in a platform independent way.
MonetaryContextBuilder	Builder class for creating new instances of MonetaryContext adding detailed information about a MonetaryAmount instance.
NumberValue	Instances of this class allow to externalize the numeric value of a MonetaryAmount.
RoundingContext	This class models the spec/configuration for a rounding, modeled as MonetaryRounding in a platform independent way.
RoundingContextBuilder	Builder class for creating new instances of RoundingContext adding detailed information about a MonetaryRounding instance.
RoundingQuery	Query for accessing instances of MonetaryRounding.
RoundingQueryBuilder	Builder used to construct new instances of RoundingQuery}.

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
MonetaryException	Exception thrown when an error occurs during monetary operations.
UnknownCurrencyException	Exception thrown when a currency code cannot be resolved into a CurrencyUnit.

Package javax.money Description

Main package of the Money and Currency API. In more detail:

• JSR 354 defines a minimal set of interfaces for interoperability, since concrete usage scenarios do not allow to define an implementation that is capable of covering all aspects identified. Consequently it must be possible that implementations can provide several implementations for monetary amounts. Users should not reference the interfaces, instead the value types should be used.
• Implementations must provide value types for currencies and amounts, implementing CurrencyUnit and MonetaryAmount.
• Implementations must also provide a minimal set of roundings, modeled as MonetaryRounding. This should include basic roundings for ISO currencies, roundings defined by MathContext or RoundingMode.
• This API must avoid restrictions that prevents its use in different runtime environments, such as EE or ME.
• Method naming and style for currency modeling should be in alignment with parts of the Java Collection API or java.time / [JodaMoney].
