[jira] [Commented] (TRINIDAD-2144) NumberConverter formatHint does
not consider trinidad-config.xml settings for decimal-separator,
number-grouping-separator
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-2144?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13130826#comment-13130826 ]
Yee-Wah Lee commented on TRINIDAD-2144:
---------------------------------------
Some additional suggestions for the group to consider
1. Add two parameters for currency decimal separator, currency grouping separator instead of using the existing decimal separator/grouping separator.
Some locales have different conventions for the two, e.g. Estonian, Farsi, Kazakh and Cyrillic Kyrgyz
2. When trinidad config parameters are not specified, substitute the locale-specific decimal separator/grouping separator, e.g. French locale uses "," for decimal separator instead of "."
3. Instead of displaying the format in the message, e.g. "Sample pattern: ##.##", display a number, e.g. "Sample pattern: 45.67"

> Key: TRINIDAD-2144
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-2144
> Project: MyFaces Trinidad
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Components
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-core
> Reporter: Yee-Wah Lee
> Priority: Minor
>
> 1. In trinidad-config.xml, set the following parameters
> <decimal-separator>','</decimal-separator>
> <number-grouping-separator>'\''</number-grouping-separator>
> 2. Run convertValidate.jspx from the demo. The number is correctly formatted, e.g. 2'00
> <tr:inputText value="#{converterValidator.bigDecimalValue}" >
> <f:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#,##0.00"/>
> </tr:inputText>
> 3. Change the number into something invalid and submit the page. The error message just shows the pattern without the locale-specific separators substituted into the decimal (.) and number-grouping(,) separators, e.g. The format of the number must match this pattern: #,##0.00. This is misleading since the user must substitute the correct separators from trinidad-config.xml before parsing will succeed.
