Hi,
just porting big 4.2.3 application to 4.3.2rc,
I see something changed from 4.3.0 about locale settings.
Before 4.3.0 locale was used to print out numbers in string format
and to read numbers from string formats.
I mean php uses the decimal delimiter definied in the locale settings.
From 4.3.0 on, php uses the decimal delimiter from locale only to
output numbers to strings,
not when read numbers from strings.
Why ?
Every other language works the old pre 4.3.0 way.
This way every serious application needs alot of work to run on php
>=4.3.0!!!!
Please explain why this change was made.
I saw in setlocale source in ext/standard/strings.c,
if ((lc.decimal_point)[0] != '.') {
/* set locale back to C */
setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C");
}
this sets LC_NUMERIC to C in every case
I'm in Italy and here we use comma as decimal delimiter.
bye
Giuseppe
