Hello,
I'm having trouble getting a WOString to format a
java.math.BigDecimal. Here's an example of what I'm doing:
sumString : WOString {
value = stats.sum;
numberformat = numberFormat;
}
'stats.sum' returns a BigDecimal. 'numberFormat' returns the string
'#.######'---my intention is to display the BigDecimal in standard
(non-scientific) notation, to a maximum of 6 decimal places. If I
have 'stats.sum' returning a value in scientific notation, say "2.8E
+2", it passes through the number formatter unaffected, and the string
"2.8E+2" is displayed on the page. If I change 'value' to
'stats.sum.toPlainString' and comment out the 'numberformat' line, I
get the value in standard notation, but then if I have a number with,
say, 10 decimal places, it obviously no longer gets truncated as
desired. What's the best way around this?
