From 71f89d85c3ca8a9e9c5d05244e9d7cc3dac58d0d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vadim Zeitlin Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 11:04:44 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Mention wxLocale in wxNumValidator documentation. Using setlocale() can thoroughly confuse wxNumValidator because it results in a mismatch between the decimal and/or thousands separators it uses, returned by wxLocale, and the actual separators in the strings, formatted by the CRT. So mention in the documentation that using setlocale() is a bad idea. Closes #12970. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@68863 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775 --- interface/wx/valnum.h | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/interface/wx/valnum.h b/interface/wx/valnum.h index 105384615b..0ca772304c 100644 --- a/interface/wx/valnum.h +++ b/interface/wx/valnum.h @@ -156,6 +156,12 @@ public: be restricted further by calling SetMin() and SetMax() or SetRange() methods inherited from the base class. + When the validator displays integers with thousands separators, the + character used for the separators (usually "." or ",") depends on the locale + set with wxLocale (note that you shouldn't change locale with setlocale() + as this can result in a mismatch between the thousands separator used by + wxLocale and the one used by the run-time library). + A simple example of using this class: @code class MyDialog : public wxDialog @@ -252,6 +258,12 @@ wxMakeIntegerValidator(T *value, int style = wxNUM_VAL_DEFAULT); implementation.
