Re: [wxlua-users] print numbers

[Victor B. <so...@te...>]

Hello,

This is what I get:

>lua.exe
Lua 5.1.5  Copyright (C) 1994-2012 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
> print(1.234, string.format("%f", 2.345), os.setlocale())
1.234   2.345000        C
> require("wx")
> print(1.234, string.format("%f", 2.345), os.setlocale())
1,234   2,345000        Spanish_Spain.1252
> print(os.setlocale("", "all"))
Spanish_Spain.1252
> print(1.234, string.format("%f", 2.345), os.setlocale())
1,234   2,345000        Spanish_Spain.1252
>

manual from lua.51 says:
If locale is the empty string, the current locale is set to an 
implementation-defined native locale.
May be Spanish locale was hard coded in my lua.exe compilation and wxlua 
calls os.setlocale("", "all")?

I have used os.setlocale("C") in my lua script after require"wx" and 
everything works as I expected
(but of course wx.wxMessageBox prints 1.234 which is not anoying for me). 
Would be good idea to
mention in the FAQ what is happenig with the locale.


Best Regards
