for fixing Trinidad-202 ([1] (was done during incubation)), we added
these lines (and some other)
DecimalFormat df = (DecimalFormat)fmt;
DecimalFormatSymbols dfs = df.getDecimalFormatSymbols();
if (dfs.getGroupingSeparator() == '\u00a0')
value = value.replace(' ', '\u00a0');
So far, so good.
But that causes issues, when running in "fr_FR" locale, like:
<tr:inputText value="#{validate.currency}"
id="outputText1">
<tr:convertNumber locale="fr_FR" type="currency"/>
</tr:inputText>
The rendered output is "12 345,68 €", which is fine.
When re-submitting this value, you'll see an converter-error-msg, that
the format is wrong.
That is because:
1. the groupingSeparator() in fr_FR is '\u00a0'
2. therefore the " " between 2 and 3 AND 8 and € is replaced by '\u00a0'.
the later is the issue, and the conversion fails.
Any ideas ?
