John DiPirro created VALIDATOR-433:
--------------------------------------
Summary: BigDecimalValidator does not validate "()" negative
currency uniformly for all locales
Key: VALIDATOR-433
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-433
Project: Commons Validator
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Routines
Affects Versions: 1.6
Environment: Windows 10, Tomcat 6, Java 8
Reporter: John DiPirro
Priority: Critical
Hi,
The following tests fail:
final String JAPAN_YEN = (new
DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.JAPAN)).getCurrencySymbol();
final String CHINA_YEN = (new
DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.CHINA)).getCurrencySymbol();
BigDecimal negative = new BigDecimal("-1234.56");
assertEquals("Japan negative", negative, validator.validate("(" + JAPAN_YEN +
"1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA));
assertEquals("China negative", negative, validator.validate("(" + CHINA_YEN +
"1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA));
Please not that this test do not fail for other locales (US AND UK, for
example).
Please advise on whether this is an issue, if there is a workaround, etc...
Regards,
John DiPirro
