OK I see. Let's keep it as is for now. Probably we'll later find some
logic behind
RI's exception messages. Anyway exception message compatibility is just a
nice-to-have feature and we have lots of other works to be done.

Right.  The description of the class BigDecimal contains the statement
"All methods and constructors for this class throw
NullPointerException when passed a null object reference for any input
parameter."

Thus, there is a bug in the 1.5.0 version of the RI when invoking the
constructor BigDecimal(BigInteger val) with a null argument since it
does not throw NPE.  This bug is fixed in version 1.5.0_08 (and also
in 1.6).  I have just seen in H784 that Vladimir Ivanov discovered
this for version 1.5.0_06.

It is a bit more complicated than that.  From the tests we have run we
can naturally guess that there are two groups of BigDecimal.divide
methods in RI:

i) those which check if the divisor is BigDecimal.ZERO in which case
they throw the exception with the message "Division by zero".

ii) those which do not check (forget to check?) and attempt to divide
anyhow: they will use the "BigInteger divide by zero" or "/ by zero"
depending on where the problem happens.  That is, depending on whether
the dividend is large (and the division takes place in BigInteger) or
small (and the division takes place in a primitive type).

Keeping it look like RI for methods of group ii) would imply trying to
determine the exact border between messages "BigInteger divide by
zero" and "/ by zero".

I've just rerun it on RI and it passed. What RI version do you use?

I got the argument about the spec. It in a class description, right?

In general if a programmer use only one method in their implementation where
RI throws "BigInteger divide by zero", then they are not aware of
other exception
messages and they might hard code that "BigInteger divide by zero" one.

So I'd prefer to keep it look like RI as it is now. BUT, if this change implies
an undesirable design change then I'm OK with discrepancy in exception
messages

Thanks,
Mikhail

Hi Mikhail,

You are right.  Two of these four tests are due to typos in the
exception messages:

1)org.apache.harmony.tests.java.math.BigDecimalConstructorsTest.testConstrStringExponentIntegerMin(
BigDecimalConstructorsTest.java:497)
expected<"Scale out of range."> but was <"Scale out of range">

2)org.apache.harmony.tests.java.math.BigDecimalScaleOperationsTest.testMovePointRightException(
BigDecimalScaleOperationsTest.java:335)
expected<"Underflow"> but was <"UnderFlow">

We corrected them (and a similar problem with "Overflow") with a new
patch "typos.diff.zip´" in H1208.

The other two failing tests require some discussion.

3)org.apache.harmony.tests.java.math.BigDecimalConstructorsTest.testConstrBI(BigDecimalConstructorsTest.java:75)

I believe the test is wrong in this case since according to the API
specification the NullPointerException will actually be thrown before
the try block.  The test incorrectly expects it to be thrown in the
block.

The RI also fails this test.

4)org.apache.harmony.tests.java.math.BigDecimalArithmeticTest.testDivideByZero(BigDecimalArithmeticTest.java:492)
expected <"BigInteger divide by zero"> but was <"Division by zero">

This is not just a typo.  Both exception messages are used by the RI
in different BigDecimal.divide methods when dividing by
BigDecimal.ZERO.  There is at least a third message: "/ by zero".
Some methods seem to use different messages depending on the size of
the dividend.

So, I see two possibilities here:

a) use everywhere the message "Division by zero".
b) try to find out when RI uses each of the different messages.

I would suggest a) rather than b) since from the point of view of the
programmer it is reasonable to obtain the same message when dividing
by BigDecimal.ZERO regardless the size (or internal representation) of
the dividend and the method invoked for the division.

In addition, doing b) may imply inspecting the behavior of RI a bit
too far.  I am reluctant to do this since different messages may
reveal when the unscaled value is implemented as a BigInteger and when
as a primitive integral value.

We submitted a new patch "tests.diff.zip" to H1208 correcting the test
mentioned in 3) and replacing the test in 4) by another invocation to
divide with the "Division by zero" message.

Both RI and our implementation pass the tests.

I think both patches should be applied.  In the meantime we may
discuss if the approach b) is preferred.

Regards,

                        Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I've tried the patch. 4 math tests failed. Could you please take a look?

Thanks,

The new patch should be applied to the version of java.math currently
in the svn repository.  It includes performance update from Vladimir
(with bugs fixed) and other similar optimizations.  We tried to
respect spacing and line breaking from the version of the repository
(it often disagrees with the original H935).

Hi Daniel,

Please resubmit the patch with license granted to ASF

Seems like the patch was generated against original H-935 contribution
and does not take into account later changes. Could you please regenerate the
patch?

Thanks,
Mikhail
