[jira] Commented: (XMLBEANS-175) Validation of decimal in exponential representation fails

["Ian Sollars (JIRA)" <xm...@xml.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-175?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12582007#action_12582007 ] 

Ian Sollars commented on XMLBEANS-175:
--------------------------------------

*bump*

As confirmed above I only have this with XMLBeans on 1.5.

This is a one-line fix on org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.JavaDecimalHolder:37:

protected String compute_text(NamespaceManager nsm) { return _value.toPlainString(); }

The only problem is, toPlainString doesn't exist in 1.4. You could compile in 1.5 with an if() on a static "JVM version" variable or something...

> 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 ... ?
