Description

A bug in RHEL7 / CentOS7 Proton causes an overflow error when using float literals '+inf' or '-inf'. The error does not occur in double values, nor for literal 'NaN'. See PROTON-1149 and PROTON-1838.

The amqp_complex_types_test uses JSON files to represent the values of the test. However, these files do not allow for comments, so it is not possible to comment out parts of the data. Data is either present or not.

In order to prevent this failure from causing the test to fail, remove the test values 'inf', '+inf' and '-inf' from the test data until this bug is fixed in Proton.
