Excel null Values get hardcoded, non-localized "#not a number#" or "#not a date#" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3878 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3878 Project: Seam Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Excel Affects Versions: 2.1.1.GA Environment: Seam 2.1.1 GA, Windows, Jetty Reporter: Alexander Schwartz When there is a null date or a null number, the helper outputs a fixed, non-localized string "#not a number#" or "#not a date#" . I think it should work like h:outputText and the string should be empty. Another alternative would be to look up the string in the messages resources to be able to change it and to localize it. case number: try { return new jxl.write.Number(column, row, Double.parseDouble(data.toString()), cellFormat); } catch (NumberFormatException e) { return new Label(column, row, "#not a number#", cellFormat); } case date: try { return new DateTime(column, row, (Date) data, cellFormat); } catch (ClassCastException e) { return new Label(column, row, "#not a date#", cellFormat); } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
