We could also create a method called like: public String getNumberAsString() {

FWIW I vigorously disagree with this assessment. Saying values are equal when they aren't is pretty bad, and the fix is neither difficult nor expensive.

This may become irrelevant if we start using EqualsTester
, but for now could you also check that b.equals(a)
is false?

We could leave it until we implement EqualsTester
…oogle#2311) * Fix the `equals` method of `JsonPrimitive` to work with BigInteger * Improve the `equals` & `getAsBigInteger` methods in `JsonPrimitive`
This PR should fix the issue #2144.
The
getAsNumber().longValue()
caused an overflow because theBigInteger
was converted to along
.The idea here is: create a
BigInteger
(that's the biggest int we could rappresent) using the string value and then compare it.
