Description

« Hide

BigDecimal's to_s does not return the same value in jruby as in native Ruby: BigDecimal.new("0.0").to_s returns "0.0E0" instead of "0.0". This triggers a chain of events that causes Rails's schema_dumper to fail for any schema that includes a decimal column, which in turn causes rake to fail for tests.

This patch fixes the most urgent part of the BigDecimal#to_s bug (Rails tests depend on BigDecimal("0.0").to_s to generate source code to deal with defaults in database columns.)
The patch also includes TODOs to mark some additional work needed.
