Thomas Nielsen commented on DERBY-3290:
---------------------------------------

Yes, it is definately more complex and involved than just removing the checks 
in NumberDataType.normalizeDOUBLE(). That is simply the codeline where Derby 
enforces this.
All of these considerations/questions, and possibly more, may be (one of) the 
reason(s) behind the SQL standard not touching on this at all but limits SQLs 
scope to approximate numeric.

> Derby cannot store java Double or Float values .NaN and 
> .[POSITIVE|NEGATIVE]_INFINITY
