ok, thanks everyone who contribute.
My conclusion is quite simple: since I only have a localized pattern,
I won't be able to use that and format the numbers acc. to it.

NumberFormat.getDecimalFormat() just gives you a formatter using a default
format string. If you want to use your own formatting string you have to use

NumberFormat.getFormat("#,##0.0##"). The symbols "," and "." are special
symbols used by

You're confusing the syntax of the pattern you give to NumberFormat for
parsing, and then the use of that NumberFormat within the context of a
locale.
What you *give* to NumberFormat is locale-insensitive: #,##0.0##
When you have that NumberFormat instance, what it does then depends on the

But then the question is, how do I change the NumberFormat so that it

pattern, those separators might appear differently depending on the locale
(e.g. the decimal separator being a comma and the thousands separator being

Default locale is actually default, not necessarily the local set.
I don't have access to my code at the moment so I'll have to do this from
the top of my head and without actually working code... but I'll give it a
try.
When a new user accesses the app I check the locale, to see what this is set
I have severe problems, understanding and using
com.google.gwt.i18n.client.Numberformat, hoping somebody out there can
