WebLogic jDriver for Oracle always returns a Java object that PRESERVES the precision of the data retrieved.

WebLogic jDriver for Oracle returns the following from the GETOBJECT() METHOD:

• For COLUMNS of types NUMBER(n) and NUMBER(m,n): a Double is returned if the defined precision of the column can be represented by a Double; otherwise BigDecimal is returned.
• For columns of type NUMBER: Because there is no explicit precision, the Java type to return is DETERMINED based on the actual value in each row, and this may vary from row to row. An Integer is returned if the value has a zero-valued fractional component and the value can be represented by an integer.

For example, 1.0000 will be an integer. A long is returned for a value such as 123456789123.00000. If a value has a non-zero fractional component, a Double is returned if the precision of the value can be represented by a Double; otherwise a BigDecimal is returned.
