I have an app which runs the following two lines of code upon starting:
DecimalFormat decim = new DecimalFormat("#.00");
return Double.parseDouble(decim.format(totalNumberOfCredits));
When I start the app on my American phone, the value of decim.format(totalNumberOfCredits)
is .00
.
However, in my Google Play Developer Console, I have a dozen crashes, all of which look like this:
Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid double: ",00"
at java.lang.StringToReal.invalidReal(StringToReal.java:63)
at java.lang.StringToReal.parseDouble(StringToReal.java:269)
at java.lang.Double.parseDouble(Double.java:295)
Is it really possible that DecimalFormat is producing a comma version of the decimal on European phones?

Yes, absolutely. That's what it's meant to do, after all:
Creates a DecimalFormat using the given pattern and the symbols for the default locale. This is a convenient way to obtain a DecimalFormat when internationalization is not the main concern.
To obtain standard formats for a given locale, use the factory methods on NumberFormat such as getNumberInstance. These factories will return the most appropriate sub-class of NumberFormat for a given locale.
Note that this isn't a matter of a "European version of Android" - it's just a matter of using Android in a context where the default locale uses ,
as the decimal separator.
If you want to use the symbols for a particular locale, but using a specific pattern, you could use:
DecimalFormatSymbols symbols = DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance(Locale.US);
DecimalFormat format = new DecimalFormat("#.00", symbols);
Having said that, it's not at all clear what you're trying to do in the first place - why would you format and then parse a number? You should almost always avoid string conversions when you don't really need them. Why not just convert it directly? (We don't know what totalNumberOfCredits
is, which doesn't help.)
public double getTwoPointDecimal(double value) {
DecimalFormatSymbols symbols = new DecimalFormatSymbols(Locale.US);
return Double.parseDouble(new DecimalFormat("##.##", symbols).format(value));
}
try it, its help me in my project
double unit = Float.parseFloat(String);
DecimalFormat decimal = new DecimalFormat("##.###").format(unit);
try this it help me in my project
