FloatItem with Validators stooped working after upgrading to version 6.0

[soflytics]

Hello Guys,

I created a small library of my own FormItems and it used to work perfectly fine till last week that I upgraded to 6.0.
SmartGWT 6.0, GWT 2.6, all browsers !!!

below is a snippet of one of my items "DecimalItem".

1. ValidateOnExit does not work
2. Losing focus trims the digits and keeps the first one.

[SUB] 
   /**
     * [USER="45788"]param[/USER] min
     * [USER="45788"]param[/USER] max
     * @return
     */
    private FormItem createDeciamlItem(String min, String max) {
        FloatItem floItem = new FloatItem();
        FloatRangeValidator frv = null;
        Validator[] v = null;
        if (ToolBox.isStrNotEmpty(min)) {
            frv = new FloatRangeValidator();
            frv.setMin(Float.valueOf(min));
        }
        if (ToolBox.isStrNotEmpty(max)) {
            frv = (frv == null ? new FloatRangeValidator() : frv);
            frv.setMax(Float.valueOf(max));
        }
        if (frv != null) {
            frv.setErrorMessage("Should be a positive number!");
            v = new Validator[] {new IsFloatValidator(), frv};
        } else {
            v = new Validator[] {new IsFloatValidator()};
        }
        floItem.setValidators(v);
        return floItem;
    }[/SUB]

Did someone experience the same behaviour? I cannot afford to rewrite the code at this point
if it's a bug I have to switch back to 5.0. till it's resolved.

I appreciate any help in advance......

we found a workaround,

Use TextItem instead then it works !!!

TextItem floatItem = new TextItem();
