objective c - Localized phone number formatting

Question

I've looked into NSFormatter, NSNumberFormatter, and the other formatting classes, but can't find a build into solution. I need to format phone numbers depending on the country code.

For instance, for US, I get a string such as +16313938888 which I need to format to look like +1(631)393-8888. The problem is I need to do this for all formats. Netherlands, I receive a string +31641234567 which will be +31(6)41 23 45 67 (something like that).

Hardcoding for 200+ countries is too tedious and I really don't know all the format rules. Is there something in the docs I'm overlooking or does anyone know of an open source class that manages this?
