[Bug 882036] Re: rounding error

 

I had confirmed this issue with Jacques-Etienne before he reported it, this should have been Confirmed from the start, sorry for the delay.
Note: clients do need minor corrections too due to the implicit naive rounding they perform when you enter a value with too many decimal digits, for example 1.145 when the decimal precision is set to 2 digits. Removing the implicit client-side rounding is an option.

Title:
  Incorrect float rounding when setting float field with too high
  precision

Status in OpenERP GTK Client:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenERP Server:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenERP Server 6.0 series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Concerns 6.0 and trunk.
  If you define a precision of 0.01, the rounding of 0.125 must be 0.13 and not 0.12. The error is in the call of the format string "%.2f"%val which introduces a mathematical error. The round function must be called to apply the correct rounding before formatting the string. It should be:
  "%.2f"%round(val*100)/100
  Fix class digits_change of class float in the server. BUT fix also the gtk client AND web client as they all have that error (I let you find the right line)
