Usefull helper
The default parsing method for C# using current culture, which sucks really badly. ( I wrote about it on SO)
Here a lil helper that I use
public static class Helper
{
public static bool TryParseDouble(this TextBox textbox, out double value)
{
if (double.TryParse(textbox.Text, NumberStyles.Any, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out value))
{
textbox.Foreground = Brushes.Black;
return true;
}
else
{
textbox.Foreground = Brushes.Red;
return false;
}
}
public static bool TryParseDouble(this string text, out double value)
{
return double.TryParse(text, NumberStyles.Any, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out value);
}
}
