Downcasting from Object to BigDecimal incorrectly uses Number#longValue

} else if (targetType.getType() == BigDecimal.class) { return (SimpleTypeCaster)(JavaClassHelper.isFloatingPointClass(fromType) ? SimpleTypeCasterFactory.BigDecDoubleCaster.INSTANCE : SimpleTypeCasterFactory.BigDecLongCaster.INSTANCE); } else {

public static boolean isFloatingPointClass(Class<?> clazz) { return clazz == Float.class || clazz == Double.class || clazz == Float.TYPE || clazz == Double.TYPE; }

Without EPL I cannot understand what you are saying

[Zoe-hz]

Event class:
public class MyEvent {
private Object[] params;
}

MyEvent myEvent = new MyEvent();
myEvent.setParams(new Object[]{new BigDecimal("156.78"), "CNY"});

then sendEventBean ...

EPL:
select cast(params[0], BigDecimal) as money from MyEvent;

The result is 156 instead of 156.78

Decimal places will be lost in this case, because used BigDecLongCaster instead of BigDecDoubleCaster.

I think you are saying that downcasting from Object to BigDecimal incorrectly uses Number#longValue?

Yes
