NumberFormat returns XX% wrongly instead of %XX for Turkish Locale

XMLWordPrintable

      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.6.0_07"
      Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b23, mixed mode, sharing)

      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
      Windows Vista Home Premium

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      In Turkish, percentage sign (%) is written before the number, not after as in English.

      In Turkish, percantage is written as 'yüzde 12' , not '12 yüzde', so the sign must be before the number.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
          Locale locale=new Locale("tr","TR");
          double number=0.123456;

          String text=formatter.format(number);
          System.out.println("Formatted : "+text);

      ---------- END SOURCE ----------
