$ cat hello.java
public class hello
{
 public static void main(String[] args)
 {
 System.out.println("Double.MIN_VALUE = " + Double.MIN_VALUE 
 + " " + Double.doubleToLongBits(Double.MIN_VALUE));
 System.out.println("Double.MAX_VALUE = " + Double.MAX_VALUE 
 + " " + Double.doubleToLongBits(Double.MAX_VALUE));
 }
}
$ gcj --encoding=UTF-8 -o hello hello.java --main=hello
$ ./hello
Double.MIN_VALUE = 0.0 0
Double.MAX_VALUE = 5.0E-324 1
on Linux in contrast:
Double.MIN_VALUE = 5.0E-324 1
Double.MAX_VALUE = 1.7976931348623157E308 9218868437227405311
Hope that helps,
Martin.
