<bean:write > uses applyLocalizedPattern to format numbers

           Summary: <bean:write > uses applyLocalizedPattern to format
                    numbers
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.1 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Custom Tags
        AssignedTo: struts-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: psevestre@ciblis.com.br


The current implementation of the function formatValue() in class WriteTag uses
the applyLocalizedPatern() function to format a Number object when the format
string comes from a resource (by means of the formatKey property).

This behaviour implies that the corresponding resource bundle contains a
localized pattern, so, in my locale (pt_BR), a number format resource would be
written as "#.##0,00".

The problem is that if the default (and sole one) resource bundle contains this
localized pattern _and_ the user decides to use another locale (eg: en_US), this
localized pattern will be invalid since the number format object will be unable
to parse it.

So, my suggestion is to change the code to always use the applyPattern()
function instead of applyLocalizedPattern().
