I'm trying to convert a long amount in euro cents to a readable value. I'm not European and I see conflicting information on this. Here is my ext func

fun Long.euroCentsToString(): String {
    val format = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance()
    format.maximumFractionDigits = 2
    format.currency = Currency.getInstance("EUR")

    return format.format(this/100)
}

If I call

849999L.euroCentsToString()

I get a result of

€8,499.00

I thought what I'd get is

€8.499,99

So Basically three issues: 1. I thought europeans use

.

to separate thousands from hundreds 2. I thought europeans use

,

to designate the start of fractional (cents) 3. I thought I'd see 99 as the cents and not 00.

What is the recommended way for validations in ktor? I have always used `javax.validation`and it is very easy and gets out of your way even if the annotations look a bit ugly. Writing validation functions for each and every requests field seems very messy. Is that really how we want to do it? Why not stick with annotations and the validation plugin use them much like

javax.validation

. That way the restrictions on the request type stays very close to the type and it becomes very little code.

Warning: Kotest autoscan is enabled. This means Kotest will scan the classpath for extensions that are annotated with @AutoScan. To avoid this startup cost, set autoscan to false by setting the system property 'kotest.framework.classpath.scanning.config.disable=true'. For further details see <https://kotest.io/docs/next/framework/project-config.html#runtime-detection>

I'm setting

tasks.withType<Test>().configureEach {
    systemProperties = mapOf(
        "kotest.framework.classpath.scanning.config.disable" to "true"
    )
}

in my Gradle build file, but I'm still seeing the message.Am I correct to assume that this should work?
