199556 - Error in converting float value from SOAP response into JS value

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

Description

[Nisheeth Ranjan]

This bug will be exposed once bug 199555 is fixed.

How to reproduce:

1) Go to above URL.
2) Type a ticker symbol.  Hit "Get Stock Quote".
3) You will see "50.54999923706055" replace the ticker symbol you just typed in
the text box.

Expected behavior:

You should see "50.55" in the text box because that is the float value returned
in the SOAP response.

CCing dbradley because this is probably an error in XPC somewhere.

It's probably an issue in XPCConvert or nsIVariant. I don't know the SOAP code
well enough to know off the top of my head. Harish, feel free to assign this to
me and I'll take a look.

We dropped SOAP.
