So if you are english everything is fine but if you are german your numbers are formatted and parsed with the "," as decimal separator.
I don't know what locale is the best to use but something like new DecimalFormat("0.0#", DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance(Locale.US)); should work. What do you think?
Sounds reasonable. I did never read the details about this class. I only wondered why Double.valueOf() is not good enough to parse a string.
It is possible that the value also contains a unit like "2.45ft". Double.valueOf() fails here. WanMil
