APAR

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
If you are passing the java.math.BigDecimal class between 2
different WebSphere
domains and you migrate one of the domains to 4.03 with JDK 131,
you may have
problems.  The reason is that the java.math.BigDecimal class was
modified in JDK
131 and the orb on older versions of WebSphere may not be able
to handle the
differences.  There are no problems passing this class between
4.03 and 3.5.6.
