> This patch adds floating point capability to VTL. It's based on code mainly
> written by Peter Romianowski with a supporting role from myself. I'm putting
> this in Bugzilla as much of this code was shared over the mailing lists in
> fragments this summer and is difficult to access. This issue can serve
> instead as a repository for the latest pre-CVS committed version.
> Included is the following:
> -- ability to enter literal numbers in the form of integers or floating point
> numbers
> -- all math and comparison functions work with floating point numbers
> -- arbitrary objects that implement the interface TemplateNumber are treated
> as numbers in arithmetic or comparison
> -- method calls with numbers, as shown in TestNumberMethodCalls.java
> Known Issues:
> -- an object implementing TemplateNumber cannot be used as an numerical
> argument in a method call.
> With regards to the last point, please see recently-posted discussion on the
> velocity-dev list.
> The patch is done against CVS head (1.5 dev, after the map patch). I've
> included all parser files. It's not necessary, but you may want to re-run
> jjtree and javacc to regenerate Parser.java, etc if you have a customized
> Parser.jj.
