Max accumulate function is not working for negative integers
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBRULES-1899
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBRULES-1899
Project: JBoss Drools
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: drools-core (expert)
Affects Versions: 5.0.0.M3, 4.0.7
Reporter: Edson Tirelli
Assignee: Edson Tirelli
Fix For: 4.0.8, 5.0.0.CR1
Some smart guy decided to name the following constants with the same name, but completely different semantics:
Long:
static long MIN_VALUE
A constant holding the minimum value a long can have, -2^63.
Double:
static double MIN_VALUE
A constant holding the smallest POSITIVE nonzero value of type double, 2^-1074.
Sure enough, I was using Double.MIN_VALUE thinking it was the smalles NEGATIVE number, the same way as Long.MIN_VALUE, and that screwed the max function implementation.
