Henri Yandell updated LANG-843:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: Review Patch
> Providing new class BigDecimalUtils
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-843
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-843
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: lang.*
> Affects Versions: 3.1
> Reporter: Premysl Maly
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: patch
> Fix For: Review Patch
>
> Attachments: equalsUtils.patch
>
> Original Estimate: 0h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Creating Utils class BigDecimalUtils and offering a new implementation of
> method equals() in ObjectUtils.
> Quoting the javaDoc from BigDecimalUtils:
> Provides some extra functionality over the BigDecimal class type Comparing
> two different BigDecimals may be tricky, because yet the value is same, the
> format may differ and then the equals method implemented on BigDecimal does
> not return expected results.
> BigDecimal first = new BigDecimal("0.10");
> BigDecimal second = new BigDecimal("0.100");
>
> first.equals(second); will return false, because those two numbers are not
> using the same format, even though the values are both "0.1".
> Usage examples:
> Compare a number to 1: if(BigDecimalUtils.equals(someNumber,
> BigDecimal.ONE))
> compare two numbers whether they are the same value or both null:
> if(BigDecimalUtils.equals(someNumber, anotherNumber, NullsEquality.EQUALS))
