Mike Beckerle created DAFFODIL-2687:
---------------------------------------
Summary: SDE for use of '~' in number patterns. Reseved by ICU
now.
Key: DAFFODIL-2687
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2687
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Front End
Affects Versions: 3.3.0
Reporter: Mike Beckerle
The '~' character is now reserved by ICU number formatting. To avoid an
exception throw, Daffodil should check for this character in number patterns
and issue an SDE.
Thanks to IBM's DFDL leads for warning us about this incompatible change in ICU.
They also mentioned (on DFDL WG Call of 2022-04-07) that:
* 'September' month abbreviation for eu-GB changed from 'Sep' to "Sept'
* The '-' sign changed in a number of locales (minus vs. dash unicode char)
Future: Expect locale ID "eu-GB' to change back to "en-GB" since GB is no
longer in the EU. I am sure had the GB voters known the havoc Brexit would
cause for DFDL they surely would have voted against it :)
