NSComparisonPredicate and floats

Hi list,

I don't know what's going on but it seems to me that CoreData NSComparisonPredicate is not able to compare floats in a fetch predicate.

Taken from a fetch all dump I have this example-object actually stored in the SQL database:
<NSManagedObject: 0x43d8e30> (entity: GeoBitmap; id: 0x43ce490 <x- coredata://00F85D92-5D2D-4F8B-80A4-7FA764848D65/GeoBitmap/p4> ; data: <fault>)
minLat: 45.90417098999023


Where the value above for minLat is a [testObject valueForKey:@"minLat"] and minLat is of type float in the model.

Now I build a fetch predicate to catch this object in the same context:

NSExpression *lhs = [NSExpression expressionForKeyPath:@"minLat"];
NSExpression *rhs = [NSExpression expressionForConstantValue: [NSNumber numberWithFloat:45.92]];


	predicate = [NSComparisonPredicate predicateWithLeftExpression:lhs
												   rightExpression:rhs
														  modifier:NSDirectPredicateModifier
															  type:NSLessThanOrEqualToPredicateOperatorType
														   options:0];

If I now execute this fetch request I do not get any results back from the executeFetchRequest, nor something in the error object.
Weird is, that if I fetch with 46.92 in the rhs expression, I do get results.
But as of my understanding the expression (45.90417098999023 <= 45.92) is as TRUE as (45.90417098999023 <= 46.92)


Did I oversee any type-attributes for NSExpression or NSComparisonPredicate?

Any suggestions? Same problems?

Thanks for any help,
-berbie.
