Duncan Jones updated LANG-1038:
-------------------------------
Description:
The strings {{"\+2"}} and {{"\+ 2"}} give a "False" result when tested by
{{isNumber()}}.
Case one, {{"\+2"}} is legal with {{Integer.parseInt()}}. Case two: {{"\+
2"}} gives an exception with {{Integer.parseInt()}}.
I believe the function should match legitimate inputs for the respective parser
function depending on the number type.
Workaround: Use something like:
{code:java}
NumberUtils.isNumber( wrkStr.replaceFirst( "\\+", "") )
{code}
was:
The strings:
+2
+ 2
Give a "False" result when tested by isNumber(). Case one, "+2" is legal with
Integer.parseint(). Case two: "+ 2" gives an exception with
Integer.parseInt().
I believe the function should match legitimate inputs for the respective parser
function depending on the number type.
Workaround:
Use something like:
NumberUtils.isNumber( wrkStr.replaceFirst( "\\+", "") )
