Java Decimal Format - as much precision as given

Question

I\'m working with DecimalFormat, I want to be able to read and write decimals with as much precision as given (I\'m converting to BigDecimal).

Answer 1

Since you noted in a comment that you need Locale support:

Locale locale = //get this from somewhere else
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat();
df.setDecimalFormatSymbols(new DecimalFormatSymbols(locale));
df.setMaximumFractionDigits(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
df.setMinimumFractionDigits(1);
df.setParseBigDecimal(true);

And then parse.
