Let's discuss compatibility issue.
Test
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import java.math.BigDecimal;
public class Test {
public static void main(String args[] ) {
BigDecimal.valueOf(0L, -22).shortValueExact();
}
}
Results
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
RI throws java.lang.ArithmeticException: Overflow
Harmony throws nothing, just return 0
Spec 1.5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
public short shortValueExact()
Throws:
ArithmeticException - if this has a nonzero fractional part, or
will not fit in a short.
Actually BigDecimal.valueOf(0L, -22) equals 0E+22. So Harmony follows
spec and looks absolutely logically. I suggest file this issue and
don't change Harmony.
