Subject: Further fix for psql's code for locale-aware formatting of numeric output.
X-Git-Tag: REL9_6_BETA1~1315
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=77130fc1482f978629a16c8e956a5477a05d2c04;p=postgresql

Further fix for psql's code for locale-aware formatting of numeric output.

(Third time's the charm, I hope.)

Additional testing disclosed that this code could mangle already-localized
output from the "money" datatype.  We can't very easily skip applying it
to "money" values, because the logic is tied to column right-justification
and people expect "money" output to be right-justified.  Short of
decoupling that, we can fix it in what should be a safe enough way by
testing to make sure the string doesn't contain any characters that would
not be expected in plain numeric output.
