            <title>[SERVER-26026] When entering a decimal value too big for Decimal128, the current error message could be more helpful</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-26026</link>
                <project id="10000" key="SERVER">Core Server</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;While doing some lightweight testing of early 3.4 new features during the MongoDB Bug Hunt Meetup, I deliberately passed in increasingly large decimal numbers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I was attempting to test:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;alternate&quot; type=&quot;square&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Approximate max number of significant digits using new decimal feature&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Appropriate error when number too large&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Quality of error message&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Decimal number were correctly saved until my number was too large and an error message appeared.  This error message was, &quot;Error: Input out of range of Decimal128 value (inexact).&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This error message makes it clear what the problem was.  However, it could be more helpful.  To figure out how many significant digits (34) are allowed in the Decimal128, I tried looking it up online and talking to a MongoDB engineer who was present.  Including this information and/or the valid range in the error message would be very helpful.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="1409467" author="geert.bosch" created="Sat, 15 Oct 2016 14:41:55 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=emaj4mongo&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;emaj4mongo&quot;&gt;emaj4mongo&lt;/a&gt;, I might have misunderstood your request, as with increasingly large numbers and values &quot;too big&quot;, I thought you noticed effects at the end of the exponent range (10**6144). However, if your suggestion is to just reword the message &quot;Input out of range of Decimal128 value (inexact)&quot; to something like &quot;Input exceeds 34-digit Decimal128 precision (inexact).&quot;, that is a change we&apos;d be happy to make.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

&lt;p&gt;The error message you&apos;ve pointed to is used for several different edge cases and it&apos;s not always trivial to catch the particular trigger condition.  Since we&apos;re not likely to add the additional logic necessary to differentiate between these conditions we&apos;re going to close this as Won&apos;t Fix, but please do continue to hammer away at Decimal and any of the other 3.4 features.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

&lt;p&gt;Thank you for participating in the MongoDB Bug Hunt and reporting this issue. I&apos;ve marked this as an improvement request to be considered by our Integration team. Please continue to watch this ticket for updates.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;br/&gt;
