Right, that's how it is supposed to work and it should be clarified in
the docs.

I don't think so.
If I see, in localeconv():
[decimal_point] => ,
[thousands_sep] => .
I expect that the number formatted with:
printf("%f",$num)
is 1.234,56 and NOT 1234,56
As you can see the [decimal_point] is ",", according with localeconv(),
but the [thousands_sep] doesn't appear here, disaccording with
localeconv().
The manual states about the %f:
"f - the argument is treated as a float, and presented as a
floating-point number (locale aware)."
But in this case the locale aware is not respected: it's respected only
for [decimal_point] and NOT for [thousands_sep].

For:
printf("%f",$num)
before it produced (with loca setted on "it"):
"1234,56"
now it incorrectly produces:
"1234.56"
that is it forgets both the [thousands_sep] AND the [decimal_point].

Yes, it was never supposed to work this way.
This is exactly the reason why wer have number_format() function.
>On the contrary, it's going worse:

I've tried the link for Windows you suggested:
http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip.
Now i've this version of php: "PHP Version 5.2.1RC2-dev".
But the problem isn't resolved. On the contrary, it's going worse: now
it's ignored also the decimal separator [decimal_point] with %f.
The problem persists also with other os.
With the same script of the previous message, here it is the output
produced:
Actual result:
--------------
Italian_Italy.1252
1234,56
Not dependant in local settings: 1234.56000
Dependant on local settings: 1234.560000
Array
(
[decimal_point] => ,
[thousands_sep] => .
...etc...
)
The expected result is obviously the same as the previous message:
Expected result:
----------------
Italian_Italy.1252

Description:
------------
The [thousands_sep] states dot "." as separator of thousands, but the
output of the number DOES NOT show it.
It is correctly shown in the array returned by "localeconv" although.
I've observed the same problem on other OS and with other locales.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo "<pre>";
$ita=array("ita","it","Italian","it_IT","it_IT.ISO8859-1","it_IT.ISO_8859-1");
$local_settings=setlocale(LC_ALL,$ita);
echo $local_settings."<br>";
$num=0+"1234.56";
echo $num;
printf("\n Not dependant in local settings: %F \n",$num);
printf("\n Dependant on local settings: %f \n",$num);
$x=localeconv();
print_r($x);
echo "</pre>";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Italian_Italy.1252
1.234,56
Not dependant in local settings: 1234.560000
Dependant on local settings: 1.234,560000
Array
(
[decimal_point] => ,
[thousands_sep] => .
...etc...
)
Actual result:
--------------
Italian_Italy.1252
1234,56
Not dependant in local settings: 1234.560000
Dependant on local settings: 1234,560000
Array
(
[decimal_point] => ,
[thousands_sep] => .
