Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-7194:
--------------------------------------------
Thanks [~daddywri].
I think we should just add this to our forbidden API list, then see what fails
(because it's using these APIs), and correct them...
> Ban Math.toRadians/toDegrees and remove all usages of it

> Key: LUCENE-7194
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7194
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Assignee: Karl Wright
>
> The result of these methods is unreliable and changes across jvm versions: we
> cannot use these methods.
> The following program prints 0.7722082215479366 on previous versions of java
> but 0.7722082215479367 on java 9 because Math.toRadians is no longer doing
> the same thing:
> {code}
> public class test {
> public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
> System.out.println(Math.toRadians(44.244272));
> }
> }
> {code}
> This is because of https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4477961.
> I am not really sure its a bug, because the method says that the conversion
> is "generally inexact".
