[Inkscape-devel] Fixed_g_ascii_strtod

Due to a recent compile error, I have found the following in fixed.cpp:

/* * until 2004-04-22, g_ascii_strtod could not handle having a locale-based * decimal separator immediately following the number ("5,4" would * parse to "5,4" instead of "5.0" in fr_FR) * * This is the corrected function, lifted from 1.107 gstrfuncs.c in glib */

It defines a function fixed_g_ascii_strtod and config.h defines a macro to point g_ascii_strtod to fixed_g_ascii_strtod. Perhaps it is ok now to purge the fixed function from our code and use the normal function? (trying to build now with "#define g_ascii_strtod fixed_g_ascii_strtod" commented out, but since that'll take a while a decided to already mail this)

Cheers, Johan
