[PATCH v3 2/2] util: fix locale problem with virStrToDouble().

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This commit fixes a locale problem with locales that use comma as a mantissa
separator. Example: 12.34 en_US = 12,34 pt_BR. Since strtod() is a non-safe
function, virStrToDouble() will have problems to parse double numbers from
kernel settings and other double numbers from static files (XMLs, JSONs, etc).
