Locale-dependent number format in .pvd files
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
I have a .pvd file with entries like
If a german locale (LANG=de_DE.UTF-8) is in effect, paraview reads the timestep as the integer "9" without any diagnostic. If I replace the decimal seperator in the data file with the german ",", like this:
then paraview reads the timestep correctly. If I leave the decimal seperator in the data file as ".", but start paraview with LC_ALL=C, the timestep is also read correctly. An example dataset is attached.
Note that the Calculator filter suffers from a similiar problem; any number containing a decimal point is accepted, but anything after the point is silently ignored.
