Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-6291:
------------------------------------
Mini-language is a scripting language. One of the nice things about scripting
languages is you can compare things like decimal values without worrying about
the underlying implementation. That is what the current implementation does: 2
== 2.0 == 2.000000.
If we were to compare BigDecimal precision, then we lose the scripting
abstraction, PLUS pretty much everything that uses Mini-language will break.
If you need to compare BigDecimal precision, then you can use a scriptlet:
groovy:fooBigDecimal.equals(barBigDecimal).
> Update code to check for types rather than throw ClassCastException
