Validation of decimal in exponential representation fails
---------------------------------------------------------

         Key: XMLBEANS-175
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-175
     Project: XMLBeans
        Type: Bug
  Components: Validator  
    Versions: Version 2    
    Reporter: Johannes Stamminger


Having an attribute of type xsd:decimal. Validating a document having set the 
attribute to "4.2E1" fails with error message "unexpected char '69'" (char '69' 
is the E). Value "42" works fine.

Other XML parsers validate "4.2E1" successfully.

BTW: according to my XML documentation, type xsd:decimal is "same as 
java.math.BigDecimal".
If this info is correct: IMHO it would be better to rely the BigDecimal-parsing 
capability ... ?
