[jira] [Created] (PIVOT-892) DoubleValidator and FloatValidator do not allow exponents to be entered

Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-892:
------------------------------------

             Summary: DoubleValidator and FloatValidator do not allow exponents to be entered
                 Key: PIVOT-892
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-892
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: wtk
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
            Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.3


The DoubleValidator and FloatValidator classes rely on a default NumberFormat instance to do parsing, however, a DecimalFormat is necessary in order to recognize floating values entered with exponents.

As a result, using one of these validators currently will fail to validate a valid floating-point number such as "3.0e20".
