DMN16 — Range of scale for number is open to interpretation

  • Key: DMN16-81
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Goldman Sachs ( Dr. Octavian Patrascoiu)
  • Summary:

    According to the DMN spec (10.3.2.3.1 number) a number is equivalent to "Java BigDecimal with MathContext DECIMAL 128.".

    The Java doc states, " A BigDecimal consists of an arbitrary precision integer unscaled value and a 32-bit integer scale.".

    However, the DMN spec de scale is in range range [−6111..6176].

    The question is what is the correct range for scale?
