[jira] [Closed] (FLEX-17210) mx:NumberFormatter failed when use localeChain

["Chris Martin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-17210?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Chris Martin closed FLEX-17210.
-------------------------------
    Assignee: Chris Martin  (was: Justin Mclean)

Closing as not an sdk issue. The user needed to check the error property when they received blank after attempting a format.

The user can use the spark formatters which use the operating system's locales, which means that locale will result in a correct format result.  However, even still they would have to check the errorText property in the event that the format result is blank.

As a point of interest, even if the user did check the error property it would return null as opposed to the expected default of "Invalid format". This is because the zh-Hans locale was not compiled in. This is expected behavior as we do not know what language to use to return an error message.
