--- Comment #5 from Eike Rathke <er...@redhat.com> --- (In reply to ady from comment #3) > FWIW, I never typed either "General" nor "Standard" in the Custom Code box. Maybe you don't, but it's a valid keyword like all others. One can define for example General;-General;; to suppress 0-values. (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) > A valid number format is "Foo 000 Bar" producing "Foo 001 Bar" for the value > 1. Bad example.. Foo 000 Bar is _not_ a valid format code, the trailing r is not accepted because R is a keyword in calendar date context (year in an implicit secondary (non-Gregorian) if defined calendar) and can't be mixed with a fixed numbers format like 000. Valid formats would be Foo 000 only in a locale where neither F nor O nor OO are keywords (which luckily are all ;p only OOO and OOOO would be in some), or "Foo "000" Bar" > If the user enters "Foo Bar" in the format code, which obviously is not a > reasonable format since neither #, 0, nor ? is part of the code we may warn. Well, Foo Bar displays "Foo Ba2024" for a date in the year 2024 ... while nonsense in this example how would you like to distinguish a valid r年 in the ja-JP locale. You don't want to come up with a bunch of tweaked by per locale special cases. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
