> Avro IDL compiler should support "NaN", "Infinity", and "-Infinity" as float
> literals
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> The Avro IDL defines floating point literals as follows:
> < FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL:
> ("-")?
> ( <DECIMAL_FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL> | <HEXADECIMAL_FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL>
> )
> >
> |
> < #DECIMAL_FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL:
> (["0"-"9"])+ "." (["0"-"9"])* (<DECIMAL_EXPONENT>)?
> (["f","F","d","D"])?
> | "." (["0"-"9"])+ (<DECIMAL_EXPONENT>)? (["f","F","d","D"])?
> | (["0"-"9"])+ <DECIMAL_EXPONENT> (["f","F","d","D"])?
> | (["0"-"9"])+ (<DECIMAL_EXPONENT>)? ["f","F","d","D"]
> >
> |
> < #DECIMAL_EXPONENT: ["e","E"] (["+","-"])? (["0"-"9"])+ >
> |
> < #HEXADECIMAL_FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL:
> "0" ["x", "X"] (["0"-"9","a"-"f","A"-"F"])+ (".")?
> <HEXADECIMAL_EXPONENT> (["f","F","d","D"])?
> | "0" ["x", "X"] (["0"-"9","a"-"f","A"-"F"])* "."
> (["0"-"9","a"-"f","A"-"F"])+ <HEXADECIMAL_EXPONENT> (["f","F","d","D"])?
> >
> |
> < #HEXADECIMAL_EXPONENT: ["p","P"] (["+","-"])? (["0"-"9"])+ >
> Java allows for "NaN", "Infinity", and "-Infinity" when parsing a Double from
> a String:
>
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html#valueOf(java.lang.String)
> The IDL compiler should allow the same set of values as Java Double.valueOf.
> Among other things, this would allow "NaN" to be used as a default value for
> float fields in Avro records.
