Near as I can tell a float s evaluated as Float(value). So, looking in
the java specs we see that a float needs a 'decimal point, an
exponent, or a float type suffix '. see
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/lexical.doc.html#230798
for more information. As for the validwhen, that should either do an
integer comaprison or a string comparison. I would guess that somehow
it fails to recognize 0.0 as an int and does a string compare. Then
0.0 really is > 0. either compare against 0.0 and ignore all int
values as not being floats, or write a custom validator, or wait for
someone smarter than me to give you a usefull answer ;}

I have a field which is being validated as:
<field property="income" depends="validwhen,float">
<arg key="income" position="0"/>
<var>
<var-name>test</var-name>
<var-value>
( *this* > 0 )
</var-value>
</var>
</field>
Well the validwhen has a bunch of other conditions. I just left them out
for clarity.
Anyways, this field is a float and its valid when its value is greater
than 0. This works perfectly when I enter a 0 in the field i.e. I get an
error. But if I type in 0.0, it validates fine. Not only that, if I type
in .1 in the field, I get an error whereas this should be a valid value.
But 0.1 works fine. I can only think this is a bug in the validation.
Has anyone else noticed this issue? Any ideas or workarounds?
