Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-453:
---------------------------------------------

setDouble is not acceptable. DECIMAL types are precise values, whereas doubles 
are imprecise. If the user/application wants to convert DECIMAL types to 
imprecise types  (double & float) that''s fine, but test code should be 
ensuring an precise type remains precise.

> Create a test wrapper to run tests using BigDecimal in J2ME/CDC/Foundation

> To run the above tests in this environment, test utility classes have to be 
> written so that the methods using BigDecimal are redirected depending on the 
> VM environment. The initial goal is to submit a patch for the test 
> resultset.java. After this, sub-tasks will be opened if changes are needed to 
> run the other tests.
