RE: [flexcoders] Flex2: AS Number to Java Long mapping

2006-03-02 Thread Jim Schneider










Same happens with NaN.
Do you (Adobe) have any thoughts as to whether this is worthy of a “fix”,
or will we need to remember to add the logic to check for 0 in all of our Java
objects.

 

Thanks,

 

Jim

What happens if you set the Number to NaN in AS?  I believe null will coerce to 0 in AS3.

Number to Java Long mapping



 

I’m experiencing the following behavior. I set an AS
Number variable to null prior to sending to a remote object. On the backend
(Java), the Number is converted to a 0. The expected data type on the Java end
is a Long (object, not primitive). This is causing us problems since we expect
a null Long object to be represented as null in the database, not 0, and as an
indicator of a new object that needs to be inserted rather than updated.

 

Is this expected behavior/mapping? Is it a bug? I can fix it
on the backend with some additional logic, but I’d rather not have to do
that. 

 

Thoughts?

 

Thanks.
