http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21992 Localized number formatting inconsistency Summary: Localized number formatting inconsistency Product: Struts Version: Nightly Build Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Custom Tags AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is an issue with the current implementation of the <bean:write> tag. If the pattern is specified directly in the "format" attribute, the decimal symbols expected are the english symbols ("." as the decimal separator, and "," as the grouping separator) but the number is actually properly formated according to the current locale. For example : <bean:write name="value" format="#,000.00"/> will give under a french locale something like : 1 234,00 So far it's ok. Now if the format pattern is moved into the resource bundle : format.pattern=#,000.00 and the tag is changed accordingly : <bean:write name="value" formatKey="format.pattern"/> the result is different : 1234,00000. The pattern has been parsed with the french decimal symbols ("," stands for the decimal separator), the dot "." is not recognized and pushed at the end of the string, five 0 are enforced after the decimal separator. One could expect that the pattern is handled the same way in both cases. This issue is caused by the call to DecimalFormat.applyLocalizedPattern() instead of applyPattern() in the WriteTag class if the "formatKey" attribute is specified. Of course using the localized symbols in the resource bundle could fix this issue, but they are not well documented and difficult to guess (i have yet to figure the grouping separator for the french locale, a simple white space won't work). There is no advantage in using applyLocalizedPattern instead of applyPattern, the number is still localized properly with a pattern in the english notation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
