Name: dfC67450 Date: 11/13/97



java.text.DecimalFormat.parse(String text, ParsePosition pp) incorrectly parses
Long.MIN_VALUE if multiplier is not set to 1.
 
Here is the test demonstrating the bug:

-----------------TestP.java------------------------
import java.text.*;

public class TestP {
    public static void main (String args[]){
        DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat();
        String str = Long.toString(Long.MIN_VALUE);
        System.out.println(df.parse(str, new ParsePosition(0)));
        df.setMultiplier(100);
        System.out.println(df.parse(str, new ParsePosition(0)));
    }
}
---------Output from the test---------------------
-9223372036854775808
9.223372036854776E16
