I want to format number with commas which are greater than 20 digits in Android. I used DecimalFormat
class and TextWatcher
on EditText
but the problem is when I enter the number greater than 20 digits it shows 0 after 20 digits rather than number.
It works fine till 20 digits.
Any Help should be appreciated.Thanks in Advance
private class NumberTextWatcher implements TextWatcher {
private DecimalFormat df;
private DecimalFormat dfnd;
private boolean hasFractionalPart;
private EditText et;
public NumberTextWatcher(EditText et)
{
df = new DecimalFormat("#,###,###,###.#####");
df.setDecimalSeparatorAlwaysShown(true);
dfnd = new DecimalFormat("#,###");
this.et = et;
hasFractionalPart = false;
}
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
private static final String TAG = "NumberTextWatcher";
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s)
{
et.removeTextChangedListener(this);
try {
int inilen, endlen;
inilen = et.getText().length();
String v = s.toString().replace(String.valueOf(df.getDecimalFormatSymbols().getGroupingSeparator()), "");
Number n = df.parse(v);
int cp = et.getSelectionStart();
if (hasFractionalPart) {
et.setText(df.format(n));
} else {
et.setText(dfnd.format(n));
}
endlen = et.getText().length();
int sel = (cp + (endlen - inilen));
if (sel > 0 && sel <= et.getText().length()) {
et.setSelection(sel);
} else {
// place cursor at the end?
et.setSelection(et.getText().length() - 1);
}
} catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {
// do nothing?
} catch (ParseException e) {
// do nothing?
}
et.addTextChangedListener(this);
}
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after)
{
}
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count)
{
if (s.toString().contains(String.valueOf(df.getDecimalFormatSymbols().getDecimalSeparator())))
{
hasFractionalPart = true;
} else {
hasFractionalPart = false;
}
}
}
Use
BigDecimal
. When/why should we use BigDecimal?Output
