Description

When parsing OData metadata, the Olingo ODataV4 client does not distinguish between Scale="0", Scale="variable", Scale="floating". See source code in master branch.

However, these values have different meanings, see the OData spec. Therefore a client application must be able to distinguish between them.

Currently, the Olingo client parses a decimal value with variable scale like "Amount": "12.34" into "Amount": 12, i.e., it cuts off the decimal places.
