Great, then I was dreaming that I read that somewhere! :-) Maybe I was thinking that it was something to do with the BigDecimal.toString scientific notation change in java 1.5 (IIRC).

I use BigDecimal all the time as a locking attribute and haven't ever had any issue with it.

Am I dreaming in thinking that I saw a discussion at some time in the past that there is some flaw with using BigDecimals as reliable* optimistic locking attributes? ..... or was that just NSTimestamps and float/double type values? ..... Google is not helping me to find the answer. Anyone recollect the situation with BigDecimal reliability as optimistic locking attributes?

*reliable = works 100% of the time
