DecimalValue

java.lang.Object
- net.sf.saxon.value.AtomicValue
- - net.sf.saxon.value.NumericValue
  - - net.sf.saxon.value.DecimalValue

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Comparable<XPathComparable>, java.lang.Iterable<AtomicValue>, AtomicMatchKey, XPathComparable, AtomicSequence, GroundedValue, IdentityComparable, Item, Sequence, ConversionResult, ContextFreeAtomicValue

Direct Known Subclasses:

BigDecimalValue, IntegerValue
```
public abstract class DecimalValue
extends NumericValue
```
Abstract class representing the XDM type xs:decimal. An instance of xs:decimal that is also an instance of xs:integer will be implemented as an instance of IntegerValue; every other xs:decimal will be implemented as an instance of BigDecimalValue.

Since:

9.8: in previous releases, the concrete class BigDecimalValue was named DecimalValue, and its instances did not include integers. The new hierarchy is designed to reflect the XDM type hierarchy more faithfully
