cannot store a value which equal to its range limit

[vanh souvanlasy]

the encoder is rejecting a value that is equal to its descriptor's valid range lower or upper limit value.
For example descriptor 13011, this should take any value between [-0.1, 1638.1]
But the value -0.1 cannot be stored and a default missing value is used instead.

Debug show that value of -0.1 was rejected because it is out of range.

Looks like the internal test of value range is done between a double and a float.
For a float -0.1 is stored as value=-0.100000001 and stored in a double as min=-0.10000000000000001
The double were used for the range and float was used for value to test.
Which fails the test: if ( (value>=min)&&(value<=max))
value is smaller than min

A simple solution would be to cast double to float before comparing the two values.
