I think fractionDigits restriction is not available for double. > Please let us know what happens, The problem I had was more of a "wrong way of thinking" problem. I agree that there is no sense in using the pattern to validate the number of fractiondigits. The reason I tried the pattern was that the decimal fractiondigits restriction did not work (in the beginning). And the reason for this was that I tried to create BigDecimals using the constructor that takes a double parameter. double amountOfHours = 1.2; someElement.setHours(new BigDecimal(amountOfHours)); This way I got lots of decimals and the validation failed. Once I tried the constructor that takes a String as a parameter the validation works. It looks a bit ugly in the code when I have to write double amountOfHours = 1.2; someElement.setHours(new BigDecimal(Double.toString(amountOfHours))); but I guess that's the only solution. Now I am able to use the decimal and the fractiondigits restriction. Let me know if there is some smarter solutions. -Niklas > -Jacobd > > -----Original Message----- > From: Niklas Koponen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 6:47 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Writing double from java-code to XML > > Hi! > > I am using xmlbeans-2.0.0. > > I have the following problem.
