[Bug classpath/27311] New: DecimalFormat problem

[roman at kennke dot org]

The following (BeanShell) program snippet should output '0.0E00' but does print
'0.0E--9223372036854775808' instead. This is especially bad, because when
trying to reparse this, this will result in a NumberFormatException due to the
'--' in it.


import java.text.*;
l_decimalFormatSymbols = new DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.ENGLISH);
NUMBERFORMAT_FLOAT = new DecimalFormat("0.0#####E00",
l_decimalFormatSymbols);
NUMBERFORMAT_FLOAT.setGroupingUsed(false);
print(NUMBERFORMAT_FLOAT.format(0.0E00));
