Doug Cutting updated AVRO-1402: ------------------------------- Attachment: AVRO-1402.patch Forrest failed with the spec change because it didn't like a 'sup' tag nested wtihin a 'code' tag. I changed the outer tag to 'em' in this case and now it compiles. Here's the modified patch. > Support for DECIMAL type > ------------------------ > > Key: AVRO-1402 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1402 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 1.7.5 > Reporter: Mariano Dominguez > Assignee: Tom White > Priority: Minor > Labels: Hive > Fix For: 1.7.7 > > Attachments: AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-2.patch, > AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-3.patch, AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-4.patch, > AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-5.patch, AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-6.patch, > AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec-7.patch, AVRO-1402-logical-type-spec.patch, > AVRO-1402.patch, AVRO-1402.patch, AVRO-1402.patch, AVRO-1402.patch, > AVRO-1402.patch, UnixEpochRecordMapping.patch > > > Currently, Avro does not seem to support a DECIMAL type or equivalent. > http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.5/spec.html#schema_primitive > Adding DECIMAL support would be particularly interesting when converting > types from Avro to Hive, since DECIMAL is already a supported data type in > Hive (0.11.0). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
