0006284: Use of double instead of BigDecimal, double is very inprecise

Description

There are a few cases in Openbravo source code where a double type is used. A double is far more in-precise than a BigDecimal. Always a BigDecimal should be used.
See for example this code in the ReportGeneralLedger class:
        double amount = 0.0;
        for (int i=0;data2!=null && i<data2.length;i++){
          if (data2[i].factAcctId.equals(data[0].factAcctId)) {
            if (log4j.isDebugEnabled()) log4j.debug("break i:"+i);
            break;
          };
          // if (data2[i].id.equals(data[0].id))
          if ((data2[i].partner.equals(data[0].partner) && (!(strcBpartnerId.equals("")&&(strAll.equals("")))))||(strcBpartnerId.equals("")&&(strAll.equals(""))))
            amount += Double.valueOf(data2[i].total).doubleValue();
        }

Here a BigDecimal should be used.

Search for the use of double in the source tree and repair the incorrect uses.
