Hi Everyone,
Riddle me this. I have a database column of type "real" that gets mapped to a
Java field of type double via JDBC. We have two databases, test and production, and the
test database is periodically blown away and reloaded from a copy of production. We
recently noticed that some values do not match when viewed within our application on test
vs. production. More specifically:
- Selecting values from both test and production DBs using psql shows "10.3885"
as the value
- The Java app on production shows "10.3884573" while the test app shows
"10.3885"
I have a hunch that when the value was originally inserted into the production DB it
probably contained more than the 6 digits supported by the real data type. It may have
even been exactly the "10.3884573" value we see when retrieving via JDBC on
production. What I don't understand is why when the value gets mapped back to Java via
JDBC those extra digits are coming back. Can anyone explain this or do you think I'm on
the wrong track? I stepped through code and it sure seems like the extra information is
coming back from the JDBC driver.
Are the production and test apps running on the same platform i.e. OS,
bitness, etc.
