Jason Dere commented on HIVE-4844:
----------------------------------
Hi Xuefu, sorry about. I did add precision/scale in a few places, let's take a
look:
1. JDBC: The precision/scale is also used for returning varchar length, so
these changes are necessary.
2. BaseTypeParams/TypeQualifiers/TTypeQualifiers: These are objects used to
hold type qualifier information, and I did add precision/scale fields/setters
to these objects. If you'd like them removed I can remove any mention of
precision/scale in these objects.
3. TCLIService.thrift: Add constant string values to represent precision/scale
fields. I can also remove those constant definitions if you like.
Let me know if you want me to remove mention of precision/scale from (2) and
(3).
