validation - Why isvalid("integer","1,5") = YES?

Question

Why does #isValid("integer","1,5")# output YES? I expected it to output NO like #isValid("integer","1.5")# does.

I'm going to validate with <CFIF isvalid("integer","1,5") AND isnumeric("1,5")> ...

Answer 1

Adobe is aware of this, but...

State: Closed

Status: Withdrawn

Reason: AsDesigned

TBH I'm a little embarrassed to be using a language that can't even validate integer correctly.

UPDATE:

Guess what, it'll be addressed in CF12!

There is no doubt that this behavior is incorrect. It is obviously wrong and it should be corrected. However, it has been like this forever and making such a fundamental change has a great potential to break a lot of applications. We dont want to do that in this release. As Rakshith has already communicated, we plan to take up such changes in 'Dazzle' where we will correct the behavior without worrying about backward compatibility.
