Double

[Alex Guerreiro]

Hello Guys,

I noticed that SimpleJPA stores Double values as String in the simple
db, so how can I work with Double values correctly?
Is there any additional jar to download?

thanks!

Hi Alex,

Sorry for the extremely late reply, but I don't think floats/doubles are handled the best way yet.  There are some things here: https://github.com/appoxy/simplejpa/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/spaceprogram/simplejpa/util/AmazonSimpleDBUtil.java

But I think the typica library might be using the best way:

http://code.google.com/p/typica/source/browse/trunk/java/com/xerox/amazonws/simpledb/DataUtils.java

which is based on this: 

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wood-ldapext-float-00

I suppose we could borrow that and implement doubles pretty easily.

Travis

Hi Travis,

I noticed that the double and floats are saved as String, but when I recover it from simpledb the values are correct, so its fine to me.

thanks
