When you generate Java™ or
COBOL code, the truncateExtraDecimals build
descriptor option specifies whether additional digits will be dropped
or rounded off if a given numeric value has more digits after the
decimal point than the target can store.
This option affects only assignments, not intermediate calculations.
Values
- YES (the default value)
- Causes digits beyond the storage limit to be dropped (for example,
if the numeric value 1123.456 was assigned to num(5,1),
the result would be a value of 1123.4).
- NO
- Causes digits beyond the storage limit to be rounded off (for
example, if the numeric value 1123.456 was assigned
to num(5,1), the result would be a value of 1123.5).
