Mark Struberg resolved OPENJPA-2671.
------------------------------------
    Resolution: Workaround
      Assignee: Mark Struberg

To be honest I'm not quite sure whether we should fix that. The proposed change 
makes us technically more correct. 
But we might break quite a few projects if we change this now. And there is a 
workaround by manually defining the mapping type. 
Hope that's good enough for you. Oh, and thanks for reporting!

> Currently, Java type {{double}} is mapped to {{NUMERIC}} for HSQLDB:
> {code:title=HSQLDictionary.java, line 82|borderStyle=solid}
>        doubleTypeName = "NUMERIC";
> {code}
> (see 
> https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/~tag=2.4.1/openjpa/tags/2.4.1/openjpa-jdbc/src/main/java/org/apache/openjpa/jdbc/sql/HSQLDictionary.java?hb=true).
> This seems wrong to me, as HSQLDB's {{NUMERIC}} is not a binary floating 
> point type, but represents exact decimal numbers and maps to Java type 
> {{BigDecimal}} (see HSQL documentation: 
> http://hsqldb.org/doc/2.0/guide/sqlgeneral-chapt.html#sgc_numeric_types). The 
> corresponding HSQL type for {{double}} is, according to this manual, 
> {{REAL}}, {{FLOAT}} or {{DOUBLE}} (all being equivalent).
