Here is my problem: I use the ressourceBunddle for the management of the language (in French and English). When I am in French, I must use the comma for the float fields. I will wish to use the point. Is this possible?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you, it goes! I used dbforms.pattern.float = ### 0.#####.
But in the text field which contains my float, it posts "float0". I would like that the field is empty, how to make?
Thanks in advance !

I do not manage to make function with the attribute nullFieldValue.
Indeed, in my form (insert new value) my text field always displays by default the value "float0".
Here my code:
jsp page:
< db:textField styleClass="clsInputStyle" size="7" fieldName="price" pattern="float" nullFieldValue="0"/>
so, I define float pattern in my ApplicationResource.properties (dbforms.pattern.float=##0.#####) and I use the pattern attribute in my text field tag (<db:textField pattern="float" fieldName="price">).
Result : I can use the point instead of the comma but in the field it appears the value "float0".
If I remove the pattern attribute, it appears the value "0" but I can't use the point instead of the comma.
I sought a solution but I did not find. I am sorry. I hope that you will be able to help me!
Thank you very much !

And that's wrong. using the pattern attribute just overrides the global settings. So in your case the text date or float will be used as pattern to format the string.
That can't work.

Ok, so how do I have to make to use a point instead of a comma for the
float in my text field when the locale is FRENCH?
I tested with the DecimalFormatSymbols class but it doesn't work.

I am sorry but can be that I express myself badly. But it is what I did since the beginning.
I create a french resource file and add a dbform.pattern.double=##.## entry (or dbform.pattern.float=##.## entry).
So I can use point instead of comma but in the field of my form it appears the word "double0" (or "float0").
Do you understand me?
I hope we will be able to find a solution.
Thanks !

Is your field defined as double?
Could you add the same pattern dbforms.pattern.float=##.##?
Are you shure that the resource file is loaded?
Could you debug the DbBaseHandlerTag.getFormattedFieldValue method what's happening with your field?
Thanks

I studied the DbBaseHandlerTag.getFormFieldValue class. I think
that the error comes from the method typicalDefaultValue(). I did
not have time to correct it. I found a solution alternate in the
method getFormFieldValue:
String returnValue = getFormFieldDefaultValue();
if (returnValue.compareTo("double0") == 0)
returnValue = returnValue.substring(6);
return returnValue;
If I have time I will try to correct the problem.
Thank you very much for your assistance, that goes now!

see http://jdbforms.sourceforge.net/UsersGuide/html/ch16s05.html
Should work for numbers too.

You can use the nullField value property!
I do not manage to make function with the attribute nullFieldValue.
Indeed, in my form (insert new value) my text field always displays by default the value "float0".
Here my code:
jsp page:
< db:textField styleClass="clsInputStyle" size="7" fieldName="price" pattern="float" nullFieldValue="0"/>
ApplicationRessource.properties:
dbforms.pattern.float=###0.#####
I would like that it displays 0 or 0.00000
Which error I made? Thank you very much for your assistance!
remove the pattern="float" attribute!
I am sorry, but I don't understand.
The help says :
"Many tags make use of the pattern attribute. For example,
<dateField pattern="date"
To set values globally for each type and language, you can define dbforms.pattern.timestamp dbforms.pattern.date etc. For Example:
ApplicationResources.properties
dbforms.pattern.date=yyyy-MM-dd
dbforms.pattern.timestamp=yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"
so, I define float pattern in my ApplicationResource.properties (dbforms.pattern.float=##0.#####) and I use the pattern attribute in my text field tag (<db:textField pattern="float" fieldName="price">).
Result : I can use the point instead of the comma but in the field it appears the value "float0".
If I remove the pattern attribute, it appears the value "0" but I can't use the point instead of the comma.

Create a frensh resource file and add a dbforms.pattern.double=##.## entry!

Hi Henner !
I am sorry but can be that I express myself badly. But it is what I did since the beginning.
I create a french resource file and add a dbform.pattern.double=##.## entry (or dbform.pattern.float=##.## entry).

Could send me the current version of the page again?
Could you try to debug?
