Stevo Slavic commented on LANG-674:
-----------------------------------

With plain Java I can parse String number representations with either dot o=
r comma as decimal point character depending on locale, but not with common=
s-lang 2.6 lang.math API. See java.text.NumberFormat, java.text.DecimalForm=
atSymbols.decimalSeparator.

E.g.

NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.US).parse(sPrice)

will properly handle price string with dot as decimal point character for U=
S locale while

NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(new Locale("nl")).parse(sPrice);

will properly handle price string with command as decimal point character f=
or Dutch locale.
