Allow exact parsing of numeric client input by creating a BigDecimal Translator
and enabling parseBigDecimal in DecimalFormat
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TAP5-540
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-540
Project: Tapestry 5
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.1.0.1
Reporter: Paudi Moriarty
The current NumericTranslator is great but it is not easy to build on it since
the classes are internal.
Tapestry should provide a BigDecimal Translator which uses the infrastructure
created for TAP5-211 but parses client input directly to BigDecimal retaining
the full precision of that input.
For example, I need a client input of 100.00 to be translated to a BigDecimal
with value 100.00. Contributing a NumericTranslator<BigDecimal> results in a
BigDecimal with value 100 because the input is parsed to a long by the
NumberFormat before being type coerced.
