[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-450?page=history ]
David Bertoni resolved XALANC-450:
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
The lexical representation of numbers in XPath 1.0 does not allow exponential
notation, so we cannot change DoubleSupport::toDouble() as you have requested.
> DoubleSupport::toDouble fails to deliver expected result.

> Key: XALANC-450
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-450
> Project: XalanC
> Type: Improvement
> Components: XalanC
> Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Martin Hepperle
>
> The following call fails to deliver the expected result if the string s
> contains a double value written using an exponent like "1.2E3" or "1.2E-03".
> The exponent should be handled properly.
> The "E" is not taken into accounmt when checking for a valid double format.
> (In scientific applications the exponent is very often expressed by the "E"
> format or a "D" format when a double is written using FORTRAN).
> dValue = DoubleSupport::toDouble(XalanDOMString s);
