------------------------------

Thanks Henri.  I was the one who inquired about this on the mailing list.  It would be really helpful to me if you could attach the patch here or point me to a link to the patch.  My company follows certain liscensing contraints.

Thanks, Grace

> Since Jexl 1.x, decimal number literals are 'float'; it would be more natural (pun unintended) to create 'double' instead since they are used more often (reduce 'surprise' effects).
> Note that since 2.1, numbers literals notations allow typing; '123f' is a float literal.
