keyboard_enter_text into field with UIKeyboardTypeDecimalPad does not finish

[fabb]

I have a textfield with keyboardType UIKeyboardTypeDecimalPad. I try to fill it via keyboard_enter_text. The text is input, and then deleted again. This happens in an infinite loop even though I just called keyboard_enter_text only once.
I guess this has to do with the UIKeyboardTypeDecimalPad keyboard not having a return button.
For keyboard dismissal, I have activated UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissModeInteractive.

Please paste the exact command and string.

I run 0.11.0 with Xcode 6.0.2 on an iPhone 5s simulator with iOS 7.1. I execute the following commands via cucumber:

tap_mark textfield_field_mark
wait_for_keyboard
keyboard_enter_text "13.37"

This is the result:

When I use the string "13,37" (the comma is not available on the keyboard), this is the result:

@fabb to clarify - are you surprised by both of these cases, or just the second (13,37) case?

[fabb]

I am very surprised by the second case, and a little by the first. I know there is no Done button on the keyboard, and calabash cannot know that a vertical swipe will close the keyboard. But I wonder why keyboard_enter_text tries to tap on the textfield multiple times after input has finished.

This is very similar to the behavior described in this case:

uia_type_string enters loop when trying to type a key that does not exist on the keyboard - UITextFields only #310

[jmoody]

@fabb The second case where you type "13,37" is a localization problem. If you need to type a "," instead of a "." for the decimal separator, then you'll need to set the locale of the device/simulator or detect the locale in your tests and try to type the correct string.

I am still trying to reproduce the first case.

Should be fixed in 0.11.5.pre3 - #630

Please reopen if you see fit.
