[jira] [Closed] (VALIDATOR-433) BigDecimalValidator does not
validate "()" negative currency uniformly for all locales
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-433?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
John DiPirro closed VALIDATOR-433.
----------------------------------
Issue addressed, custom formatting solution will be needed to compensate for non-uniformity of how JVM interprets "()' negative prefix/suffix.

> Hi,
> The following tests fail:
> final String JAPAN_YEN = (new DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.JAPAN)).getCurrencySymbol();
> final String CHINA_YEN = (new DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.CHINA)).getCurrencySymbol();
> BigDecimal negative = new BigDecimal("-1234.56");
> assertEquals("Japan negative", negative, validator.validate("(" + JAPAN_YEN + "1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA));
> assertEquals("China negative", negative, validator.validate("(" + CHINA_YEN + "1,234.56)", Locale.CHINA));
> Please not that this test do not fail for other locales (US AND UK, for example).
> Please advise on whether this is an issue, if there is a workaround, etc...
