Gary D. Gregory updated CLI-226:
--------------------------------
Attachment: cli-226.diff
This patch updates the number handling to accept "," and "." for decimal
separators. This is a change in behavior from what is described in the Javadoc.
> createNumber() in TypeHandler cannot work with some Locale
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CLI-226
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-226
> Project: Commons CLI
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Reporter: Olivier Sechet
> Labels: i18n
> Attachments: cli-226.diff
>
>
> The {{createNumber()}} method in the {{TypeHandler}} class expects the
> decimal separator to be a dot ({{'.'}}). However the dot is not used in all
> the languages as a decimal separator. Most of the European countries, Russia
> and a lot of others countries uses a comma ({{','}}).
> With the corresponding {{Locale}}, the {{createNumber()}} method fails,
> throwing an exception.
> For example:
> {code:title=Type.java|borderStyle=solid}
> public class Type {
> public static void main(final String[] args) {
> java.util.Locale.setDefault(java.util.Locale.GERMANY);
> String text =
> java.text.NumberFormat.getNumberInstance().format(12.34);
> Number nb = org.apache.commons.cli.TypeHandler.createNumber(text);
> System.out.println(nb);
> }
> }
> {code}
