Just a question regarding the use of NSNumberFormatter vs NumberFormat.

Hi Michael,
Look I'm not an expert of this, but I see that NumberFormat has not the format() method for Objects (it has format(long), format(double)), so you cannot use it for Number or BigDecimal Instances (in my apps I only use
BigDecimal for operations).

You might want to double check the api :-)

You mean this one ?
public StringBuffer format(Object number, StringBuffer toAppendTo, FieldPosition pos)

And of course you have to set methods for getting the strings, and not
simply bind it in the numberFormat binding.

Yeah, that's the bit that's a real inconvenience IMO. For mine, the more hard-coding in java code, the less flexible it is for making quick changes (e.g., for a graphic designer)

with regards,
