Operating system: Linux (SuSE 7.0)
PHP version: 4.0.3pl1
PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Bug description: printf() and float data vs.setlocale()
Changing the locale setting to a country that uses comma (,)
as the decimal seperator will stip off decimal places from
the float value in printf/sprintf. Example:
MySQL table:
create table test (
name varchar(100),
value float(16,2)
);
insert into test values ('bla', 3.789);
PHP code:
setlocale("LC_ALL", "de_DE");
// mysql_connect etc.
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
printf("%s: %.2f",
$row["name"], $row["value"]);
Result:
bla: 3.00
