PathVariables of type double [SPR-6528]

[spring-projects-issues]

Christopher Anderson opened SPR-6528 and commented

Take the following REST endpoint:

 
@RequestMapping("/lat/{latitude}/long/{longitude}")
public void testLatLong(@PathVariable Double latitude, @PathVariable Double longitude) {
	System.out.println("Latitude = " + latitude);
	System.out.println("Longitude = " + longitude);
}

If you hit this with the URL

/lat/123/long/456 

However, if the URL contains doubles with a decimal place e.g.:

/lat/2.3/long/445

The endpoint is not longer hit, i.e. we get a 404.

Interestingly, if we change the type of the PathVariables to String:

 
@RequestMapping("/lat/{latitude}/long/{longitude}")
public void testLatLong(@PathVariable String latitude, @PathVariable String longitude) {
	System.out.println("Latitude = " + latitude);
	System.out.println("Longitude = " + longitude);
}

It will not work when latitude or longitude contains a fullstop. However, a comma will work instead of a fullstop in this case.

This issue does relate to #10448, which is still open.

This should be fixed now, as part of the fix for #11148. Can you try a upcoming snapshot and see if it works for you?

BTW: #10448 is not open, but closed, with a working workaround.

This is now fixed in the latest nightly build.
