Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on VALIDATOR-433:
----------------------------------------------
Can you share a complete test case for that? The following code fails with US
too, but not sure if you have similar code.
{code:java}
@Test
public void bigDecimalValidatorTest() {
BigDecimalValidator validator = new BigDecimalValidator();
final String US_DOLLAR = (new
DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.US)).getCurrencySymbol();
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("US negative", negative, validator.validate("(" +
US_DOLLAR + "1,234.56)", Locale.US)); // fails
assertEquals("Japan negative", negative, validator.validate("(" +
JAPAN_YEN + "1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA)); // fails
assertEquals("China negative", negative, validator.validate("(" +
CHINA_YEN + "1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA)); // fails
}
{code}
> BigDecimalValidator does not validate "()" negative currency uniformly for
> all locales

> 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,
