Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo commented on TAP5-540:
----------------------------------------------------

Tip: BigDecimal.scale() retuns the number of digits to the right of the decimal 
point. Then use DecimalFormat.setMinimumFractionDigits() to define the number 
of digits to the right of the decimal point when formatting.

> Allow exact parsing of numeric client input by creating a BigDecimal 
> Translator and enabling parseBigDecimal in DecimalFormat

> 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.
