This is probably a bug or "difference" between how Java and the ICU
implement number formatting. There are a number of differences between how
Java and the ICU behave. The stylesheet you provided is from our
conformance test suite, and this is one of the tests that Xalan-C++ fails.
You could report a bug to the ICU, giving the the number you're trying to
format, the decimal and grouping separator you're trying to use, and the
format string. If it gets fixed, we'll get the fix when we upgrade to that
version of the ICU.

Hi ,
In the following example, format-number is not behaving as expected . I
am using the latest Xalan C++ and ICU. Do you know any known problems
in formatting numbers in the latest version of Xalan C++ with the latest
version of ICU ?
