>             Project: Commons BeanUtils
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Locale BeanUtils / Converters
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
>         Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
>            Reporter: Paul Jenkins
>             Fix For: 1.8.0

> Problem found in Build 1.7
> LocaleBeanUtils.setProperty(bean, name, value);
> Does not handle negative values. When processing negative values the 
> FloatLocaleConverter.parse(value, pattern) throws a ConversionException 
> because 
> of the following if test: -
> if(Math.abs(parsed.doubleValue() - parsed.floatValue()) > 
>                                           parsed.floatValue() * 0.00001) {
>   throw new ConversionException(...);
> }
> This test will always fail for a valid negative value because the 
> multiplication by 0.00001 will result in a negative value which will be less 
> then the abs subtraction.
> A solution to this problem would be to check Math.abs(parsed.floatValue() * 
> 0.00001)
> We also suffer from the previously reported problem of the locale converters 
> not supporting boolean to get round this problem we have to determine the 
> property type and call either LocaleBeanUtils.setProperty() or 
> BeanUtils.setProperty() this would be made easier if the: -
> protected Descriptor calculate(Object bean, String name) 
> method was made public.
