Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-1493: ------------------------------------------- We've discussed including this patch even with the avro 1.8.0 snapshot dependency on [dev list|http://markmail.org/message/akqnll4zjpm3aqt4] and decided to do so. I've tried to commit the patch, but it no longer applies. Wondering if you're open to rebase it [~abec] or whether I should do that? > Add ability to import/export true decimal in Avro instead of serializing it > to String > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SQOOP-1493 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1493 > Project: Sqoop > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.4.5 > Reporter: Jarek Jarcec Cecho > Assignee: Abraham Elmahrek > Fix For: 1.4.7 > > Attachments: SQOOP-1493.patch, SQOOP-1493.patch, SQOOP-1493.patch, > SQOOP-1493.patch > > > Currently, we're serializing decimal to string when importing to Avro and > Parquet.
