Aihua Xu commented on HIVE-9917:
--------------------------------
Internally when we convert timestamp to numerical type, it converts to double
so it should be fine.
The latest patch fixed the unit tests and the unit tests failed above seem to
be unrelated.
[~jdere] Anything else I should check ?
> After HIVE-3454 is done, make int to timestamp conversion configurable

> After HIVE-3454 is fixed, we will have correct behavior of converting int to
> timestamp. While the customers are using such incorrect behavior for so long,
> better to make it configurable so that in one release, it will default to
> old/inconsistent way and the next release will default to new/consistent way.
> And then we will deprecate it.
