Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-5281:
------------------------------------
I believe the best approach is for MiniLanguage to mimic other scripting languages in its handling of numeric constants (or literals). So, value="0.01" represents one one-hundreth.
MiniLanguage elements that include the value attribute need to be changed so the user's locale is not used during conversion.
> BigDecimal in Minilang are not correctly converted with Czech Locale

> Key: OFBIZ-5281
> URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5281> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ALL COMPONENTS
> Affects Versions: Release Branch 12.04
> Environment: Czech locale
> Reporter: Petr Pytelka
> Assignee: Adrian Crum
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: BigDecimal, locale, mini-lang
>
> I've found problem in accounting transactions when running Ofbiz with Czech locale. Problem is in the method:
> <simple-method method-name="postAcctgTrans" short-description="Post a AcctgTrans">
> Namely with the lines containing decimal numbers, like:
> <if-compare field="trialBalanceResultMap.debitCreditDifference" operator="greater-equals" value="0.01" type="BigDecimal" >
> When running Ofbiz with Czech locale decimal number format is like: 0,01. Minilang files are parsed according actual locale it means that number is incorectly parsed as 0.0 instead of 0.01. I see this as a critical issue for using Ofbiz with Czech locale.
> My first ideas how to solve this issue:
> 1. Refactor minilang files to contain only 0 as a decical value,e.g.:
> <if-compare field="trialBalanceResultMap.debitCreditDifference" operator="greater-equals" value="0.01" type="BigDecimal" >
> to
> <if-compare field="trialBalanceResultMap.debitCreditDifference" operator="greater" value="0" type="BigDecimal" >
> 2. Change minilang parser to have special support for parsing BigDecimal with C locale
> 3. Append attribute with number format specification for each line with
> big decimal in particular format, e.g.: format="C"
> Any help with this issue is welcomed...
