This locale feature is started on 19-Jul-2003 in PEP 331, the latest
Sybase module is created on 27-Apr-2003. I think it's not use this
feature yet.
Anyway, I wrote my own converter.
It's ugly solution and maybe slow, but it's works...
def sybase_num_to_python_float(sybase_num):
if sybase_num == None:
return None
elif not '.' in str(sybase_num):
return int(sybase_num)
else:
if '-' in str(sybase_num):
negative = True
whole,decimal = str(sybase_num).replace('-','').split('.')
else:
negative = False
whole,decimal = str(sybase_num).split('.')
value = float(whole) + float(decimal) / (10 ** len(decimal))
if negative: value = - value
return value

>>>I have some problem, when I use Sybase module with GTK:
>>>
>>> cursor.execute(" select 1.2 ")
>>> num = cursor.fetchone()[0]
>>> print num # 1.2
>>> print float(1.2) # 1.2
>>> print float(num) # 1.2
>>>
>>> import gtk
>>> print num # 1.2
>>> print float(1.2) # 1.2
>>> print float(num) # 1.0 <- not 1.2
>>>
>>>
>>>After import gtk, the float truncates the decimal.
>>>How can I fix this?
