Description

In JexlArithmetic.java method public BigInteger toBigInteger(Object val) uses the following case for BigDecimals as for any other numbers:
...
else if (val instanceof Number) {
return BigInteger.valueOf(((Number) val).longValue());
...

For large BigDecimals > Long.MAX_VALUE it may lead to loss of value. Please consider using BigDecimal.toBigInteger() method for that case?
