Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-784) Need to specify the behaviour of arithmetic operators on Decimal type
[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-784?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=59255#comment-59255 ] Evan Ireland commented on ODATA-784: ------------------------------------ If Scale(A) = 0 and Scale(B) = 0, then both operands are essentially integers. This issue is important because a reasonable expectation in that case for (A div B) would be to expect integer division semantics (truncation, with the result having no fractional component). The proposed rule scaleof(A div B) = scaleof(A) + scaleof(B) would provide for integer division of integers. > Need to specify the behaviour of arithmetic operators on Decimal type > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ODATA-784 > URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-784 > Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: OData URL Conventions > Affects Versions: V4.0_OS > Reporter: Evan Ireland > Priority: Minor > Fix For: V4.0_ERRATA03 > > > The rules for scale of results of decimal arithmetic operators are not specified. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2.2#6258)
