[java] Best way to parseDouble with comma as decimal separator?

This is the static method I use in my own code:

public static double sGetDecimalStringAnyLocaleAsDouble (String value) {

    if (value == null) {
        Log.e("CORE", "Null value!");
        return 0.0;
    }

    Locale theLocale = Locale.getDefault();
    NumberFormat numberFormat = DecimalFormat.getInstance(theLocale);
    Number theNumber;
    try {
        theNumber = numberFormat.parse(value);
        return theNumber.doubleValue();
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        // The string value might be either 99.99 or 99,99, depending on Locale.
        // We can deal with this safely, by forcing to be a point for the decimal separator, and then using Double.valueOf ...
        //http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4323599/best-way-to-parsedouble-with-comma-as-decimal-separator
        String valueWithDot = value.replaceAll(",",".");

        try {
          return Double.valueOf(valueWithDot);
        } catch (NumberFormatException e2)  {
            // This happens if we're trying (say) to parse a string that isn't a number, as though it were a number!
            // If this happens, it should only be due to application logic problems.
            // In this case, the safest thing to do is return 0, having first fired-off a log warning.
            Log.w("CORE", "Warning: Value is not a number" + value);
            return 0.0;
        }
    }
}
