Johannes Stamminger commented on XMLBEANS-175:
----------------------------------------------

I just tried to switch to XmlDecimal ... but it fails the same way as when 
using the reported mechanism:

        final XmlDecimal decimal = XmlDecimal.Factory.newInstance();
        decimal.setBigDecimalValue(new BigDecimal("4.0E+7"));
        assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));

 fails, the "4.0E+7" stays unchanged.

But the following works, event with the 1E-8 reported not doing so in my first 
workaround:

        decimal.setStringValue(new BigDecimal("4.0E+7").toPlainString());
        assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));
        decimal.setStringValue(new BigDecimal("1E-8").toPlainString());
        assertFalse(decimal.xmlText().contains("E"));

> Having an attribute of type xsd:decimal. Validating a document having set the 
> attribute to "4.2E1" fails with error message "unexpected char '69'" (char 
> '69' is the E). Value "42" works fine.
> Other XML parsers validate "4.2E1" successfully.
> Parsing fails in 
> org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.JavaDecimalHolder#validateLexical(String, 
> ValidationContext).
> BTW: according to my XML documentation, type xsd:decimal is "same as 
> java.math.BigDecimal".
> If this info is correct: IMHO it would be better to rely the 
> BigDecimal-parsing capability ... ?
