Problem with accuracy with double

[VenkatRastapuram]

Hi,

I am unable get the accurate values using double. I know that I can get accurate using BigDecimal. But now I can not convert the datatype from double to BigDecimal in my classes as they are used in many places. I am able to get the correct value if I make the calculations in BigDecimal and after converting it into double but I am storing that value in the database. When we retrieve the data from the database then I am facing the same problem. Pls solve my problem. Pls let me know any workaround for this problem.

Thanking You

If the double precision is not enough for your calculation, I'm afraid you have to use the BigDecimal for all the calculations where the double is not enough.

Furthermore, you'll have to store the values in the database with BigDecimal precision, not double.
