useInvariantCultureNumberFormat property

FieldOptions.useInvariantCultureNumberFormat property

Gets or sets the value indicating that number format is parsed using invariant culture or not

get useInvariantCultureNumberFormat(): boolean

Remarks

When this property is set to true, number format is taken from an invariant culture.

When this property is set to false, number format is taken from the current thread’s culture.

The default value is false.

Examples

Shows how to format numbers according to the invariant culture.

let doc = new aw.Document();
let builder = new aw.DocumentBuilder(doc);

Thread.currentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("de-DE");
let field = builder.insertField(" = 1234567,89 \\# $#,###,###.##");
field.update();

// Sometimes, fields may not format their numbers correctly under certain cultures.
expect(doc.fieldOptions.useInvariantCultureNumberFormat).toEqual(false);
expect(field.result).toEqual("$1.234.567,89 ,     ");

// To fix this, we could change the culture for the entire thread.
// Another way to fix this is to set this flag,
// which gets all fields to use the invariant culture when formatting numbers.
// This way allows us to avoid changing the culture for the entire thread.
doc.fieldOptions.useInvariantCultureNumberFormat = true;
field.update();
expect(field.result).toEqual("$1.234.567,89");
