Description : When the testcase source code is being ikvm'd [C:\>ikvmc  -
target:library -reference:IKVM.GNU.Classpath.dll  DecimalFormatter.jar]. We 
get different output.


TestCase Source code :

#package DecimalFormatter;
#
#import java.text.DecimalFormat;
#
#
#public class TestFormatter
#{
#    
#    public TestFormatter()
#    {
#        System.out.println("Started DecimalFormat Testcase ....");
#               
#               float flt = 1234577777;
#               String  strFlt = new DecimalFormat("S#.12345").format
(Float.MAX_VALUE);
#               String  strFlt1 = new DecimalFormat("S#.00").format
(Float.MAX_VALUE);
#               String  strFlt2 = new DecimalFormat("0.7547895").format
(Float.MAX_VALUE);
#               
#               System.out.println("Float.MAX_VALUE is " + Float.MAX_VALUE);
#               System.out.println("Float.MIN_VALUE is " + Float.MIN_VALUE);
#               System.out.println("Formatted value for "+Float.MAX_VALUE+" in 
Format S#.12345 is " + strFlt);
#               System.out.println("Formatted value for "+Float.MAX_VALUE +" 
in Format S#.00 is " + strFlt1);
#               System.out.println("Formatted value for "+Float.MAX_VALUE +" 
in Format 0.7547895 is " + strFlt2);
#               
#
#               System.out.println("End....");
#    }
#       public static void main(String[] args) 
#       {
#           TestFormatter objTestFormatter = new TestFormatter();
#       }
#}
