Ok, well, I've taken this up with Railo and...

http://groups.google.com/group/railo/browse_thread/thread/d8e20b9830829a1f

Any thoughts on this Mark?

If you want the short version...

"What happens if you change the line from "cf_sql_float"to
"cf_sql_double" or "cf_sql_decimal"?   I bet it's a truncation issue,
where ColdFusion considers cf_sql_float and cf_sql_double to be
equivalent, but Railo is correctly using reduced precision for
cf_sql_float (causing your erroneous value).  To put that another way,
I suspect a bug in ColdFusion (not reducing precision on cf_sql_float)
is masking a bug in Transfer (using an imprecise type for numerics)
that Railo's correct implementation (reducing cf_sql_float precision)
unmasks.  :)

cheers,
barneyb"



"I'm pretty sure all that's needed for confirmation is to change the
type from cf_sql_float to cf_sql_decimal or cf_sql_double and confirm
that that fixes the issue (just like cf_sql_bigint) does.

"Hi whostheJBoss

Railo translate CF_SQL_FLOAT to java.sql.Types.FLOAT
then java.sql.PreparedStatement.setFloat(int index,float value) is
used
in this case,
i think adobeCF use java.sql.PreparedStatement.setDouble(int
index,double value) instead of setFloat.

but this is definitly the wrong way, like barney has written before
"cf_sql_double" or "cf_sql_decimal  is the way to go.
from my perspective it is wrong to change this to "setDouble".

what do you thnk?

greetings micha
