----------------------------------------------------------
Key: STDCXX-767
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-767
Project: C++ Standard Library
Issue Type: Bug
Components: 22. Localization
Affects Versions: 4.2.0, 4.1.4, 4.1.3, 4.1.2
Reporter: Martin Sebor
Priority: Minor
The Plum Hall test lvs07a/conform/t228.dir/_222612Y41.cpp that exercises the
{{std::money_get}} facet fails at runtime with the following errors:
{noformat}

The expects whitespace to be optional where the {{money_base::space}} specifier
appears in the pattern format.
According to [locale.money.get.virtuals] para. 2:
{quote}
Where space or none appears in the format pattern, except at the end,
optional white space (as recognized by ct.is) is consumed after any
required space.
{quote}
We interpret this to mean that:
* where money_base::space appears in the format at least one space is required,
and
* where money_base::none appears space is allowed but not required
but other interpretations may be plausible. Clearly Plum Hall must read it
differently. Seems like an issue in the standard. I've posted a question to
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] to get a clarification.
