[Gambas-user] Upd 3.15.2, a) Val("15911.23046875") fails in Xub16.04LTS only b) \t not working (anymore)

Dear Gambas Cracks


a) Val("15911.23046875") fails in Xub16.04LTS:
After Update 3.15.2 below given example fails in Xubuntu 16.04LTS but
not in 18.04LTS. Both with same localization (i believe).

Did something change with Val("15911.23046875") in 3.15.2 ?
Some hints how to make Val() more robust ?


b) No \t in Messages:
\t does not work in Messages (anymore or never before)?


Sb out there having the same problem ?
Any feedback would be welcome.


Thanks ub2

example:
Dim $RamInst_str$, $RamInUse_str$, $RamAvail_str$, $MsgTxt$ As String

    Stop    'Fail in Xub1604LTS after Upd Gambas 3.15.2
	    'Fail in Val("15911.23046875")     <<<<====

    $RamInst_str$ = "15911.23046875"
    $RamInUse_str$ = "12345.0"

    Stop    'Fail: Val($RamInst_str$)
    $RamAvail_str$ = Val($RamInst_str$) - Val($RamInUse_str$)
        'ok     with Xub16.04LTS + Gambas 3.15.1,
        'FAIL*  with Xub16.04 LTS + 3.15.2
        'ok     with Xub18.04LTS + Gambas 3.15.1
        'ok     with Xub18.04 LTS + 3.15.2

    '*Fail 1: Typenunverträglichkeit:
    '         Erwartet Number, statt dessen Null erhalten

    $MsgTxt$ = "Check RAM:\n"
                "+ Installed: " & "\t+ " & CStr($RamInst_str$) & "\n"
                "- In use : " & " \t- " & CStr($RamInUse_str$) & "\n"
                "= available : " & "\t= " & CStr($RamAvail_str$) & "\n"

    Message.info($MsgTxt$)
   '"Fail" 2: \t not working inside MessageBox (anymore? since Ver?)

    $MsgTxt$ = "<pre>" & $MsgTxt$ & "</pre>"
    Message.info($MsgTxt$)      '\t ok
