As Currency.parse(@localprice) can only work with us formatted string (as stated by u Josh) I transformed my locale strings into a us one before sending it to parse :
@p1 = @localprice.tr".,",",." => "125.256,25 €" -> "125,256.25 €" @product.price = Currency.parse(@p1) => @product.price.cents = 12525625 and it works ( I get the correct @cents ready to be stored..) but then executing (either runtime or breakpoint) @product.save RuntimeError: can only compare with money or integer ./script/../config/../vendor/plugins/trunk/lib/globalize/models/ currency.rb:64:in `<=>' script/../config/../app/models/product.rb:29:in `validate' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.3/lib/ active_record/validations.rb:753:in `valid_without_callbacks' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.3/lib/ active_record/callbacks.rb:306:in `valid?' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.3/lib/ active_record/validations.rb:723:in `save_without_transactions' ...... strange , @cents is an Integer type.... and price in my DB too..... what else am I missing ? kad _______________________________________________ Railsi18n-discussion mailing list Railsi18n-discussion@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/railsi18n-discussion
