Problem with BigDecimal in IE

[humpy125]

I have the following code that runs without issue in Chrome & FireFox but IE throws an exception:

String bigDec = params.speedLimit.isBigDecimal() ? "yes. :)" : "no. :("
                log.debug "speedLimit ${params.speedLimit} is a BigDecimal? ${bigDec}"
                
                if (!params.speedLimit.isBigDecimal()){
                    
                    importLogInstance.errors.rejectValue('speedLimit',                                                 // Field in view to highlight using <g:hasErrors> tag
                                'importLog.speedLimit.notNumber') 
                }    
                if (importLogInstance.validate()){
                    if (!importLogInstance.hasErrors()){

                        if (params.speedLimit != null){
                            speedLimit = new BigDecimal(params.speedLimit) // line 595
                        }

The stacktrace is:

java.lang.NumberFormatException
	at java.math.BigDecimal.<init>(BigDecimal.java:534)
	at java.math.BigDecimal.<init>(BigDecimal.java:728)
	at TSM.TsmAnnualPublicationsController$_closure23.doCall(TsmAnnualPublicationsController.groovy:595)
	at TSM.TsmAnnualPublicationsController$_closure23.doCall(TsmAnnualPublicationsController.groovy)
	at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662)

Can anyone suggest a fix for this?

This looks like server code.. How do specify speedLimit in your HTML form?

It turned out to be a problem with how IE handles jQuery. I was using the $() shortcut syntax rather than jQuery().  When I changed the code in the AJAX call to use jQuery() then it worked.

Good for you! Now answer my question on the forum if you can :) How to set up params for unit testing data binding with one-to-many associations?  by trondbert
