[xsd-users] xs:decimal returning inf

[Seymour, Robert]

Hi Boris,

Thanks for the quick response, yes I'm sure we are setting to infinity.  I thought since it was an xs:decimal that it would never map to those types and perhaps have some bounds.  I'll see how I can handle this globally for our use case to extend the decimal to do the checking.

Thanks,
- Rob

You mean you set it to infinity? If so, then what would you expect the result to be. Infinity is an invalid value for xs:decimal. And XSD does not support validation on serialization.
