Description

FloatToString seems to return unexpected results.

Test Case:
@Test
public void testFloatFormat() throws Exception

{ Float testFloat = new Float(100.1878783420); FloatToString fts = new FloatToString(); String format = "###.##"; String v1 = fts.convert(new Float(100.1878783420), Locale.US, TimeZone.getDefault(), format); NumberFormat nf = new DecimalFormat("###.##"); String v2 = nf.format(testFloat.floatValue()); Assert.assertEquals("100.19", v1); Assert.assertEquals("100.19", v2); }

This class may be the cause:
public static abstract class AbstractNumberConverter<S, T> extends AbstractLocalizedConverter<S, T> {

It seems to drop the "format" string.

Also, the method:
protected String format(Float obj, NumberFormat nf) throws ConversionException {

Should be made public to work around the issue if you want to , for example, provide the DecimalFormat to the converter.
