{ comment by submitter:
The following statement (which works in Delphi)
result:=Format('%10.n', [ival*1.0]);
generated an unhandled exception (and said: Missing argument in format "").
Checking the Delphi documentation, it agrees with the fpc documentation
(units.pdf), that a dot should be followed by a (but Delphi does
not appear to explicitly state that prec should be an integer).
It appears that Delphi is treating this like %10.0n, although it is
potentially undefined behaviour. The fpc documentation indicates I
should get an EConversionError exception if there are problems.
(Actually the documentation may be inconsistent, since it also says
I may get an EConvertError exception.)
If I change the format string to %10.0n, the program runs OK using
fpc, however, my thousand separators do not appear.
}
var
s : string;
ival : integer;
begin
ThousandSeparator:='.';
DecimalSeparator:=',';
ival:=1234;
s:=Format('%10.n', [ival*1.0]);
writeln('s: "',s,'"');
if s<>' 1.234' then
begin
writeln('Problem with Format');
halt(1);
end;
end.
