Hi Mike,
* Use 0 instead of # for the rightmost two.
I tried that:
<xs:element name="price" type="xs:decimal"
dfdl:textStandardDecimalSeparator="."
dfdl:textNumberPattern="####.00" />
It gave the same result (the .00 is removed):
5000.00 --> parse --> 5000
Thoughts?
/Roger

Use 0 instead of # for the rightmost two. In a pattern, a zero denotes any
digit. A # denotes an optional digit.

Hello DFDL community,
My input contains decimal values such as: 2999.99 and 5000.00
When I parse my input, the .00 gets removed, e.g.,
5000.00 --> parse --> 5000
But the .99 is not removed, e.g.,
2999.99 --> parse --> 2999.99
I want to retain the two digits to the right of the decimal point, even if they
are 00
How to retain the digits? I thought this would do the job:
dfdl:textNumberPattern="####.##" />
However, that has no effect.
What's the right way to do it?
/Roger
