David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-1132:
---------------------------------------

There is some history behind this, and I think the current status is that it needs to be discussed.

The intent of the current stuff (only moderately well supported) is to have quantity ALWAYS be an integer (whole number) and if a decimal amount is needed then the "amount" field would be used.

Anyway, to get an idea of what's up I recommend reading though some mailing list history, and there are probably some relevant Jira issues too. Yeah, by this I mean researching the issue.

In short though, this should NOT be committed until it is discussed and a solution/approach generally agreed on.

If we do go with supporting decimal numbers for the quantity field we need to at least first have in place an indicator on the Product entity as to whether a decimal quantity is allowed for that Product or not, and that should default to false to be consistent with current behavior.

> Data model and quantity value type allows positive non-integer quantity of the products. But this possibility is blocked in some points of the ShoppingCart[Helper/Item/Events] code. Of course this case is seldom enough but it's possible. The patch corrects this problem.
