question

Here we add a portion of the code that parse the prices: final Map items = response.getItemData(); String[] prices = new String[4]; float[] floatPrices = new float[prices.length]; int i = 0; for (final String key : items.keySet()) { //Get the item. Item item = items.get(key); //Pass the price to an array. prices[i] = item.getPrice(); //Extract the value. String aux = ""; for(int c = 0;c < prices[i].length();c++) { char ch = prices[i].charAt(c); if((ch >= '0' && ch <= '9') || ch == '.' || ch ==',') aux += ch; } //Convert to float. try { floatPrices[i] = Float.parseFloat(aux); } catch (NumberFormatException exception) { applicasaManagerAndroid.failMilesPacksConnection(); if(CrazyBelts.DEBUG) { Gdx.app.log("AMAZON IAP", "Error when extracting IAPs float price."); } return; } //Iterate i. i++; }

Hi Sergio, First, I see the code you have posted is not correct. This wont even compile. Can you copy and paste the code what you are doing after receiving ItemDataResponse? Second, you are neither posting from the account that owns the app nor you have mentioned the app name. If you do not want to say the app name publicly, please file a ContactUs ( https://developer.amazon.com/help/contactus.html) with a reference of this thread URL. Thanks.

Hi, Our producer is Immanitas Entertainnment and the game is published in the Amazon Store with the name Crazy Belts. The code after receiving ItemDataResponse is the one I posted. This code compiles with no problem, the game currently in the store use the code and this code used in Sandbox mode works perfectly, so we think it's ok and the problem could be in other place. Thanks.

I am sorry. Actually I realized that we can not post [ ] with 'i' in the middle in the forum. It's reserved char sequence for italicize the words. That was the reason [, ] and i were missing from the code that you have posted above. I will take a look on the issue and get back to you shortly.

Hi, I downloaded the app and can see the IAP catalog (different packs of miles) there with the correct price. I also can purchase them as well. I have used my US account to purchase the app and I see the price is in $ unit. Which market place you are using to purchase the app?

Hi, It surprises us. We usually test it from Spain and never works, but I think that we have people from other countries in Europe that also notified us that the IAPs aren't listed and don't work. Maybe a problem only from European countries? Thanks for your help.

The parseFloat method doesn't work with commas. The standard method for currency display for many European countries such as Spain utilize commas. That is likely the cause of their error.

Hi jemchicomac, I'm sorry for joining the conversation so late, but I hope this helps for future reference. We had a similar issue as this, when formatting the prices of the store. The first thing one needs to note is that Amazon IAP v.2 only sends the formatted string with the price, but it is unclear which is the format used for the parsing, therefore, there is not a straight forwards way for getting the numeric price. The issue is, one needs the [b]language[/b] used for formatting the price, but Amazon IAP v.2 API does not provide an API for obtaining the language, only the [b]country[/b]. This is clearly not enough, since formatting a country like Canada might be in French or English language. It is still unclear if the formatting happens with the language of the device or the language of the store. There are a few options to work around this. 1. Try to make some kind of smart parsing that tries to assume the language of a given country 2. Keep a map of Amazon's supported markets (as of writing, English (U.S.), English (Australian), English (U.K.), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish) and only support those 3. Map the SKUs with an external service where you can obtain the prices in number (e.g. a JSON file with the SKUs of the products and the prices in US Dollars or Euros, then manually make the conversion) I hope this helps a bit, waiting for a possible solution to this, maybe in Amazon IAP v.3!
