By plugging values into DoubleDoubleSummation and calling getLong(), I've observed that it rounds non-integer values to the nearest integer (e.g., 4.6 rounds up to 5) but with strange tie-breaking behavior. All the values I've tested that end in .5 (nearest integer is a tie) round towards 0. For example, 2.5 becomes 2.
The most common tie-breaking modes round ties away from 0 (2.5 would become 3) or round ties toward the nearest even integer. The current behavior isn't necessarily wrong, but it is unconventional.
I wrote a short unit test to illustrate. Note that this test case passes on my local machine.
