Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-3290:
----------------------------------------------
Another issue would be backwards compatibility. Current Derby does perform the
role of ensuring only valid numeric values are allowed in DOUBLE/REAL columns
which (thanks to Knut Anders) does follow the SQL Standard.
Changing these datatypes to allow such values would be a change in behaviour
and a dangerous one for any application relying on the current behaviour.
> Derby cannot store java Double or Float values .NaN and
> .[POSITIVE|NEGATIVE]_INFINITY
