[jira] Commented: (XMLBEANS-175) Validation of decimal in
exponential representation fails
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-175?page=comments#action_12427901 ]
Johannes Stamminger commented on XMLBEANS-175:
----------------------------------------------
I just tried to switch to XmlDecimal ... but it fails the same way as when using the reported mechanism:
final XmlDecimal decimal = XmlDecimal.Factory.newInstance();
decimal.setBigDecimalValue(new BigDecimal("4.0E+7"));
assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));
fails, the "4.0E+7" stays unchanged.
But the following works, event with the 1E-8 reported not doing so in my first workaround:
decimal.setStringValue(new BigDecimal("4.0E+7").toPlainString());
assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));
decimal.setStringValue(new BigDecimal("1E-8").toPlainString());
assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));

> Having an attribute of type xsd:decimal. Validating a document having set the attribute to "4.2E1" fails with error message "unexpected char '69'" (char '69' is the E). Value "42" works fine.
> Other XML parsers validate "4.2E1" successfully.
> Parsing fails in org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.JavaDecimalHolder#validateLexical(String, ValidationContext).
> BTW: according to my XML documentation, type xsd:decimal is "same as java.math.BigDecimal".
> If this info is correct: IMHO it would be better to rely the BigDecimal-parsing capability ... ?
