[jira] [Commented] (BROOKLYN-236) Catalog version ignores trailing zero: 1.10 treated as 1.1

["Aled Sage (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-236?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15361735#comment-15361735 ] 

Aled Sage commented on BROOKLYN-236:
------------------------------------

Our examples have been changed to include quotes, and the docs now say "Also note YAML treats numbers differently to Strings. Explicit quotes are recommended, to avoid {{1.10}} being interpretted as the number {{1.1}}." 

See:
* https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-server/pull/222
* https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-docs/pull/82
* https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-library/pull/46

> With Brooklyn 0.9.0-SNAPSHOT.
> Add the example catalog item below - once with version {{1.2}} and once with versoin {{1.10}}. When you look in the catalog, it shows versions 1.1 and 1.2 (instead of 1.10 and 1.2).
> If you put the version number in quotes (e.g. {{version: "1.10"}}) then it works as expected.
> Presumably the problem is in the YAML parsing: it interprets the value as a double rather than a String, so throws away the zero at the end.

> Should we:
> * change all our examples to put the version in quotes, so it is a string?
> * try to parse this YAML value differently (but then we can't just rely on the normal YAML parsing of {{org.yaml.snakeyaml.Yaml().loadAll(yaml}}?)
