number formatting (with commas)
Hi guys,
I have looked through all of the documentations and am just not having any
success formatting numbers (i.e 70333 -> 70,333) so I thought i'd ask you
guys. here are relevant snippets of my code.
<s:iterator value="positions">
<tr>
<td><s:property value="account"/> </td>
<td ><s:property value="symbol"/> </td>
<td><s:text name="format.number"><s:param name="value"
value="netpl"></s:param></s:text></td>
</tr>
Positions in the above code is a list of position objects
class Position
{
private String symbol;
private String account;
private float netpl;
//followed by getters and setters for all of the above field
}
The Action class FirmwidePositionAction returns the list of positions after
querying the the database
What I want is for the netpl number to show up formatted properly with the
comma placeholders and a 'USD' prefix, so I created the package.properties
file and placed it in the same package as the action class.
Here is my package.properties file
format.time = {0,time}
format.number = USD{0,number,##0.00}
format.percent = {0,number,##0.00'%'}
format.money = {0,number,\u00A4##0.00}
The numbers all show up perfectly. However, I am not able to get the 'USD'
to appear in front of the netpl columns. What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks

Wouldn¹t the appropriate currency symbol be in the locale properties? I
expect you would have a separate package.properties file for each locale.

(Be wary of roseindia tutorials.)
Chris is right; it's just a positional parameter--not sure what I was
thinking when I wrote my original response.

I am not sure actually, it was just an example I pulled the roseindia site.
This is all quite new to me.

Since the purpose of the <s:text> tag is to allow things like:
error.message=User {0} has not been granted permission to view that page
<s:text name="error.message"><s:param value="%{user.id}"/></s:text>
I don't see how having USD outside of the curly braces would be a problem,
but just in case it is, you might try:
format.money={0,number,'USD'###,##0.00}
Also try something like:
format.money=This is rediculous
to make sure it's picking up the properties file you think it is.

Is it possible to specify characters outside of the format string like
that? It's not how you've formatted the money type:
> format.money = {0,number,\u00A4##0.00}

Guess it would help if I read your entire email ;)
How about this:
format.number= {0,number,\u00A4###,##0}
-or-
format.number= {0,number,'USD'###,##0}

wont "format.money = {0,number,\u00A4###,##0}" automatically add a '$' sign
in front of the number?

Re: number formatting (with commas)
Posted by Burton Rhodes <bu...@gmail.com>.
I solved it this way:
<s:textfield key="netpl" value="%{getText('format.money',netpl)}" />
Then in your class path put a file called package.properties with the following:
# used to format dates, numbers in the jsp files (display)
format.time = {0,time}
format.dateShort = {0,date,MM/dd/yyyy}
format.number = {0,number,###,##0.0##}
format.percent = {0,number,##0.00'%'}
format.money = {0,number,\u00A4###,##0}
format.moneyDecimal = {0,number,\u00A4###,##0.00}
