If we use a DecimalFormat("#.") to format(0.09), and then use that same DecimalFormat object to format(0.0), it will return the string "1." instead of "0.".

This worked correctly in JDK 1.2 but fails in JDK 1.2.2 final.

Note the very similar bug 4243108, which occurs in 1.2.2 RC1 but not in 1.2.2 final. Seems like the fix to that bug may have caused this bug?

import java.text.*;
public class DoubleFormatTest4
{
public final static void main (String[] args)
{
DecimalFormat f = new DecimalFormat("#.");
System.out.println(f.format(0.09));
System.out.println(f.format(0.0));
}
}

Output:
0.
1.
