BigDecimalLocaleConverter is not working as expected

[Rodrigo Canabrava <ca...@gmail.com>]

The class
org.apache.commons.beanutils.locale.converters.BigDecimalLocaleConverter is
not converting to BigDecimal, but instead, it converts to Long or Double.

It seems the problem is that the class distributed (in releases 1.7.0 and
1.6.1) do not correspond to the code found at
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/xref/org/apache/commons/beanutils/locale/converters/BigDecimalLocaleConverter.html


In the class distributed in the jars, the method parse(Object, String) is
not overriden.

Should that be reported as a bug? Didn't anyone else ever noticed this?

This was reported as a bug and fixed a couple of years ago - but there
hasn't been a BeanUtils release since then :-(

Thats the latest code - which is why it doesn't correspond to either
of the versions you mention.
