FilteringTable incorrectly identifies dataType for columns in fillCell method

[[email protected]…]

(Note this has nothing to do with numeric formatting. Instead, this is an issue with identifying the column is of a numeric dataType.)

In the fillCell function in FilteringTable?.js in Dojo 0.4.2 at approx. line 733, you see the following construct (unchanged from 0.4.1):

} else if ("Number number int Integer float Float".indexOf(meta.getType())>-1){

The problem here is that if you specify a dataType="Number" on the column, meta.getType() returns the function Number(), not a text string. Hence, this else block never gets executed and the code does not correctly identify that the column has a dataType of "Number".

If I replace the line with:

} else if (meta.getType() == Number) {

Then the block will get executed.

That is line 492 in 0.4.2. Sorry. Same file, same issue, though.

Should be fixed w/new Table widget.

FilteringTable? is not being ported to either Dijit or DojoX, so I'm closing the bug.
