class CPNGNumberGrouping; 


/**
* This class acts as a wrapper for the Number Grouping engine (NumberGrouping.dll). 
* It exposes non-static API to the engine so that it can be used without the client code dealing with the
* issues of
* - build switches for calling numbergrouping API
* - build switches for linking to NumberGrouping.lib
* - checks on Feature Manager.
*
* It deals with these internally.  In the case of __SERIES60_PHONE_NUMBER_GROUPING being #undef-ed, this 
* object acts as if there is a "null" phone number grouping.
* 
* Static methods are included for those who are doing a small number of individual groupings of phone numbers, 
* say, when a view or popup is constructed, or a title pane is refreshed. These construct the object 
* internally within the static call.
* 
* The class also deals with the conversion of numbers to potentially locale or setting-
* specific number symbols, using the Series 60 platform policy.
* 
* For repeated, frequent operations, the non-static API is recommended.  Only a limited number of methods 
* from NumberGrouping.h are exposed, but these suffice in the main use cases.
