- AMPL Control Configuration, Control Builder A, Function Chart Builder - Wrong execution when Regional Settings "English US"/Decimal symbol ","/Digit grouping symbol "."
If Regional Settings (Win NT)/Regional Options (Win 2000) are set to:
Regional Settings (Win NT)/General (Win 2000):
English (United States)
Number(s): Decimal symbol ","
Digit grouping symbol "."
(Default values are
Number(s): Decimal symbol "."
Digit grouping symbol ",")
then constants entered in exponential notation lose their exponent and the decimal digits.
The application works with wrong constants.
The problem is not visible in offline mode or AMPL Source Code. Wrong values can be seen in online mode when a value containing exponent and/or decimal digits is selected for display.
To correct the problem the default regional settings for English (United States) (see above) have to be set and new target code has to be created and downloaded.
There is no problem when Regional Settings/Regional Options are set to:
Regional Settings (Win NT)/General (Win 2000):
German (Standard)/German (Germany)
Number(s): Decimal symbol ","
Digit grouping symbol "."
These are the default settings.
