Kirk Wylie commented on XMLBEANS-175:
-------------------------------------
This also causes another problem, which is that the .NET/C# xml parsing DOES
successfully disallow exponential notation for xs:decimal values when using the
xsd.exe tool, which affected me today. I'm working around by using the
toPlainString format as well, but it's definitely a flaw to EVER export an
exponential number to an xs:decimal field.

> Key: XMLBEANS-175
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-175
> Project: XMLBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Validator
> Affects Versions: Version 2
> Reporter: Johannes Stamminger
> Assigned To: Radu Preotiuc-Pietro
> Attachments: TestExponent.jar, TestExponent.xsd,
> XMLBeansExponentTest.java

> 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 ... ?
