Easiest way to print currency symbol internationally . . .

Hello:

Is there an easier, more correct way to print out currency than this:

     std::locale germanLocale("german");
     std::cout.imbue(germanLocale);
     std::cout
         << std::fixed
         << std::setprecision(2)
         <<
std::use_facet<std::moneypunct<char>>(germanLocale).curr_symbol()
         << 1000000.00
         << std::endl;

The outputted currency symbol isn't even correct.

Also, is there a way to get a list of locales on my machine? platform
independently?
