NumberFormatException for new UnsignedLong( double )
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AXIS-2587
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2587
             Project: Apache Axis
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Basic Architecture
    Affects Versions: current (nightly)
            Reporter: Alexis Reigel


The double constructor for the class org.apache.axis.types.UnsignedLong raises 
a NumberFormatException exception if the argument is a double value.
E.g. 

<code>UnsignedLong ulong = new UnsignedLong(1D);</code>

The Problem lies in the constructor itself. The line

<code>new BigInteger(Double.toString(value))</code>

calls the constructor of java.lang.BigInteger which expects a string defined as 
follows: "The String representation consists of an optional minus sign followed 
by a sequence of one or more decimal digits". In the case of a double value 
this fails of course.

I'm not sure about the purpose of this constructor anyway. Why would you want 
to create a long from a double?
