                    base 10) number. How is it converted to limited-

Reflecting floats: The rules for parsing floating point number values return an
unlimited-precision (finite in base 10) number. How is it converted to
limited-precision IDL attribute types? In particular, what rounding mode is
used? and do very large values get converted to Infinity?
