https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/494
Safe number parsing methods for more convenient XML parsing with GPatâ¦
The following results in af NumberFormatException:
xml.'**'.find{it.name()` == 'someBigDecimal'}.toBigDecimal()
if the element content is empty which means the following construct is
necessary:
```
xml.'**'.find{it.name() == 'someEmptyBigDecimal' &&
it.text()}?.toBigDecimal()
```
This pull request ensures that null is returned if the element is empty for
the following methods:
```
toBigInteger()
toBigDecimal()
toDouble()
toBigLong()
toBigFloat()
```
