[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-1810?page=com.atlassian.jira.plu... ] Dan Florian commented on TEIIDDES-1810: --------------------------------------- No [~blafond]. The real value is the one that will be stored in the EObject property (so it will have the precision loss). The displayed value, coming from the EMF annotation property is strictly for the user to give them a warm and fuzzy feeling that the number they entered is _exactly_ the number we are using. Again, with numbers this large, the difference in the numbers is relatively extremely small and the user will not know the difference. All values in the PropertiesView are shown as Strings [~mmakovy] regardless of their real type. The problem is that when we roundtrip the new value (obtaining the new long value, conversion from long to int, converting to String for PropertiesView) the value has changed. What I am proposing in #2 is that we save that original long value as an annotation. Then when displaying in the PropertiesView we would first look for that annotation, and if it exists, we would use that as the value instead of the actual value found in the object's property. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
