Hi Michelle,

We should not use Double.MIN_VALUE and MAX_VALUE in TCK tests. I had changed a number of these to fix a similar bug last year, but apparently overlooked this class.

We decided to use these values for double in the AllTypes class:
    public static final double DOUBLE_SMALLEST = -9999999999999.9;
    public static final double DOUBLE_LARGEST  =  9999999999999.9;
    public static final double[] double_values =
        { DOUBLE_SMALLEST, DOUBLE_LARGEST, 0.0, 100.0, 100.0,
            50000000.0, -234234.234, 1000000000.0, 350.5, -25.5 };

I'd be happy to use DOUBLE_LARGEST and DOUBLE_SMALLEST from AllTypes.

What do you all think?

TestFieldsOfDouble fails because the test attempts to persist values of Double.MIN_VALUE and Double.MAX_VALUE and the Derby double datatype has narrower limits:

"DOUBLE value ranges:

   * Smallest DOUBLE value: -1.79769E+308
   * Largest DOUBLE value: 1.79769E+308
   * Smallest positive DOUBLE value: 2.225E-307
   * Largest negative DOUBLE value: -2.225E-307

These limits are different from the java.lang.DoubleJava type limits."

Any suggestions on how to handle this?
