I'm slow ... (conditional formating)

[jbbaird]

I have a BigDecimal Field (RUN_ERR_CODE) with a value of 0 or a positive integer ...

 

I am trying to "print when expression" on

 

new Boolean ($F{RUN_ERR_CODE}.intValue()!=0)

 

To display when it is non zero - any guesses at why this doesn't work?

 

Thanks

Hi,

Perhaps your field value is too largely to int converts.

 

from Sun API

 

"Converts this BigDecimal to an int. This conversion is analogous to a narrowing primitive conversion from double to short as defined in the Java Language Specification: any fractional part of this BigDecimal will be discarded, and if the resulting "BigInteger" is too big to fit in an int, only the low-order 32 bits are returned. Note that this conversion can lose information about the overall magnitude and precision of this BigDecimal value as well as return a result with the opposite sign."
