Remarks

The CurrencyDataType<T> property is recognized by the GridControl, TreeListControl, DataLayoutControl and PropertyGridControl.

See the example below:

builder.Property(x => x.Int64Property)
                .CurrencyDataType();

The currency symbol and its position depend on the current culture.

Using the CurrencyDataType<T> method is equivalent to assigning the [DataType(DataType.Currency)] data annotation attribute to a data property.
