Description

On JDK1.5, BigDecimal.toString() will use exponential notation for small values. This results in different text from SQLDecimal.getString() on 1.5 vs. earlier VMs

Patch which makes SQLDecimal use BigDecimal.toPlainString() on JDK1.5 so that generated text is the same as in prior versions.

This uses reflection to invoke toPlainString() allowing the code to be compiled on earlier VMs.
