Any suggestions about a clean way to have both Java and ICU
NumberFormat ?
If the ICU number formats are compatible with the current ones, I
think replacing the current implementation with ICU is the best way.
I don't think that we have to be compatible on a class level here.
It was very nearly a drop-in replacement :)
The main difference was that com.ibm.icu.text.DecimalFormat.parse
returns com.ibm.icu.math.* classes instead of java.math.* classes,
easily worked around.
As for any subtle differences in the pattern formats, I have not
noticed anything yet.
Thanks for your feedback.
