force german system to is decimal point not comma
Mar 3rd, 2009, 3:07pm  
hi,
my processing sketches often generate acsii files to be postprocessed by other software to just a kind of a log file.

i use the PrintWriter class and the prinltln method to write theese file. how can i force processing/java to not use the german comma as decimal separator?

eg.:
pWriter.println(100.001); // adds 100,001 not 100.001

any solutions for this general problem?

thanks,
stefan
