Hello.

I looked and understood the code of methods ReadDecimal and WriteDecimal on
.NET platform.

1. At the moment remaking of this methods for my Java-decimal-fix is very
difficult, it needs to write new methods for serialization/deserialization
of negative decimals.

I can make it, but there is simpler decision: to add additional byte for
sign.

I need advice: difficult solution (new methods .net) Versus : simple
solutions (additional byte)?

*I don't know yet, what changes are necessary on ะก++ platform.

2. I see a problem with the negative scale on .NET platform.

Now negative scale is forbidden.

We can make:
if (scale < 0) return Decimal.Multiply(new decimal(lo, mid, hi, neg, 0),
new decimal(Math.Pow(10, -scale)));

But there is the problem:
* 1 Serialize in Java; number=123456789, scale=-4
* 2 Deserialize in .NET; number=1234567890000, scale=0
* 3 Serialize in .NET; number=1234567890000, scale=0
* 4 Deserialize in Java; number=1234567890000, scale=0

Logically: (1) 123456789 * 10^4 == (2)  1234567890000

In Java (1) not equal (2), because scales are different.

Any thougths?
