Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on TEXT-76:
----------------------------------------
Issue moved to Commons Text. Confirmed issue with JaroWinkler in Commons Lang
latest, as well as in Commons Text latest versions.
The problem is the Math.round, that rounds a very long 0.99... double number
into 100 long. Then divides by 100D.
> Jaro Winkler implementation introduced in 3.5 is not correct
> ------------------------------------------------------------

> Using 3.5 commons-lang the following call return a distance of 1

> Jaro Winkler says that distance of 1 means equal string which is not the case
> here.
