When you use custom scheme, problem solved according to my test.


was (Author: sgejun):
When you use custom scheme, I believe precision would also lost. 

For example, 

123456789012345678901234567890123456789111, it will become something like 
1.2531261878596697E40. Is this really what we want?

> Issue with Spark interpreting Oracle datatype NUMBER

> In Oracle exists data type NUMBER. When defining a filed in a table of type 
> NUMBER the field has two components, precision and scale.
> For example, NUMBER(p,s) has precision p and scale s. 
> Precision can range from 1 to 38.
> Scale can range from -84 to 127.
> When reading such a filed Spark can create numbers with precision exceeding 
> 38. In our case it has created fields with precision 44,
> calculated as sum of the precision (in our case 34 digits) and the scale (10):
> "...java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: Decimal precision 
> 44 exceeds max precision 38...".
> The result was, that a data frame was read from a table on one schema but 
> could not be inserted in the identical table on other schema.
