ID: 54538 User updated by: davidkarlin at gmail dot com Reported by: davidkarlin at gmail dot com Summary: setlocale() interferes with NumberFormatter class Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: OS X PHP Version: 5.3.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Sorry - I typed the wrong lines in the expected and actual results. Should be "123.456,789" in both cases. But you get the idea... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-04-15 13:32:41] davidkarlin at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- >From manual page: http://www.php.net/class.numberformatter --- When I have my locale set to 'en' with setlocale(), the NumberFormatter class works just fine. If I set the locale to, for example, 'fr_FR', the NumberFormatter class fails, giving a 'NaN' result. This is irrespective of the fact that the setlocale() function has clearly worked, as evidenced by gettext() working just fine. I can't see any reason why the setlocale function should have anything to do with the operation of NumberFormatter: this isn't documented, and I'm explicitly passing the locale I want to use in the parameter. Using 5.3.5 (the most recent available through MacPorts) Test script: --------------- setlocale(LC_ALL, 'en'); $nf = new NumberFormatter('de_DE',NumberFormatter::DECIMAL); print $nf->format(123456.789); // Outputs the correct answer 123.456,789 print "<br/>\n"; setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr_FR'); $nf = new NumberFormatter('de_DE',NumberFormatter::DECIMAL); print $nf->format(123456.789); // Outputs NaN Expected result: ---------------- 123456.789<br/> 123456.789 Actual result: -------------- 123456.789<br/> NaN ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54538&edit=1
