Jason Dere updated HIVE-3976: ----------------------------- Attachment: remove_prec_scale.diff Here is the patch containing the instances where I've removed precision/scale from the patch to hIVE-4844, if you are interested in re-applying these changes on your side > Support specifying scale and precision with Hive decimal type > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3976 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3976 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor, Types > Reporter: Mark Grover > Assignee: Xuefu Zhang > Attachments: remove_prec_scale.diff > > > HIVE-2693 introduced support for Decimal datatype in Hive. However, the > current implementation has unlimited precision and provides no way to specify > precision and scale when creating the table. > For example, MySQL allows users to specify scale and precision of the decimal > datatype when creating the table: > {code} > CREATE TABLE numbers (a DECIMAL(20,2)); > {code} > Hive should support something similar too. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
