6 | |||
7 | LC_NUMERIC documentation updates fixing two errors: | ||
8 | |||
9 | - the early parts of perllocale.pod still say printf() uses LC_NUMERIC | ||
10 | with just 'use locale' when actually a POSIX::setlocale() call is | ||
11 | also needed | ||
12 | |||
13 | - format() hasn't used LC_NUMERIC unconditionally since 5.005_03 | ||
14 | (commit 097ee67dff1c60f201bc09435bc6eaeeafcd8123). | ||
15 | |||
16 | Test cases from the upstream commit dropped for the sake of simplicity. | ||
