As Romain said in response to your previous question, the capabilities provided as part of any software implemented on top of the jre, such as tomee or openejb, don’t affect arithmetic operations in the jre in any way. After carefully analyzing your actual needs you might investigate the BigInteger and BigDecimal classes to see if they will support whatever you are trying to do. I don’t think you will find any way to exactly model the set of real numbers, rational numbers, or even integers on any computer built now or in the future.
Btw while not an expert I don’t think your example illustrates overflow of underflow but rather that decimal fractions can’t be converted accurately to finite binary fractions. This is why eg cobol used binary coded decimal.
