Hello,
I have a data entry grid and a column should be numeric ( BigDecimal in java ). To get the correct representation of the number I transmit the number to flex as String, to avoid the scientific representation of the number. My problem is that in the editable grid, the user can change the numeric column(s) value and those columns participate in some total calculations, percentages.... displayed underneath the grid...
Problem: How should I preform the calculation without loosing the precision? For example,
Java Bigdecimal value: 654564564645645647872
Flex: 6.54564564645646e+20
How can I avoid loosing the last decimals? in this case 47872?
Is there any way I can do that? I'll need to perform the calculation real time on the client side... I am open for suggestions... How have you treated situations like this?.
Thanks for your help,
Valy
