Hello!


Thanks for reminding me! Illegal character should be checked
also error detection in configration parser is needed.


Considering that ngx_atofp() was used in some 3rd party modules,
Would nginx-devel accept a new function like ngx_ato??() or
lround(strtod()), or just let strtod() alone?

With such a change it won't be possible to detect errors in other
places where ngx_atofp() is used. In particular, something like

split_clients $remote_addr $foo {
0.015% 1;
* 2;
}

will silently discard trailing 5. Moreover, even something like

split_clients $remote_addr $foo {
0.01foobar% 1;
* 2;
}

will be silently accepted.
