Wanvik commented on DERBY-6083: -------------------------------------- Thanks, Kim! No, the precisions are not changed so the FLOAT section is fine as is. +1 to changing the language on "smallest"; I used the same in the code. Nit: in the table in rrefnumericlimits.dita the exponents "e" are given with varying case. As for further changes, I haven't gone through all the manuals to look for occurrences of the limits, but I imagine you did :) If so, +1 to the patch! > Update minimum/maximum floating-point values to align with DERBY-3398 fixes > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-6083 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6083 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation > Affects Versions: 10.10.0.0 > Reporter: Kim Haase > Assignee: Kim Haase > Priority: Minor > Attachments: DERBY-6083.diff, DERBY-6083.stat, DERBY-6083.zip > > > The limits for floating-point values have changed as a result of DERBY-3398 and should be documented: > Smallest DOUBLE: 4.9e-324 (aka Double.MIN_VALUE) > Largest DOUBLE: 1.7976931348623157e+308 (aka Double.MAX_VALUE) > Smallest positive DOUBLE: 2.2250738585072014E-308 (aka Double.MIN_NORMAL) > Largest negative DOUBLE: -2.2250738585072014E-308 > Smallest REAL: 1.4e-45 (aka Float.MIN_VALUE) > Largest REAL: 3.4028235e+38 (aka Float.MAX_VALUE) > Smallest positive REAL: 1.17549435E-38 (aka Float.MIN_NORMAL) > Largest negative REAL: -1.17549435E-38 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
