     Type:  Bugs                                |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined                    |  Component:
  Version:  Boost 1.62.0                        |  multiprecision
 Keywords:  cpp_dec_float locale decimal point  |   Severity:  Problem
------------------------------------------------+--------------------------
 A cpp_dec_float_50 variable being transformed to a string will always
 contain a decimal *point* - independent of the locale used for the stream.

 The reason is that all branches in format_float_string (number_base.hpp,
 line 806) append a decimal point. The function might need an additional
 parameter for the actual decimal separator in use.
