Sun BiaoBiao created SPARK-35007: ------------------------------------ Summary: Spark 2.4 version does not support numeric Key: SPARK-35007 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-35007 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: SQL Affects Versions: 2.4.7 Reporter: Sun BiaoBiao
as said in this pr: [https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/31891] , So seems the key difference between DEICMAL and NUMERIC are: {quote}implementation-defined decimal precision equal to or greater than the value of the specified precision. {quote} Decimal can have _at least_ specified precision (which means can have more) whereas numeric should have exactly specified precision. Spark's decimal satisfy both so I think NUMERIC as a synonym of DECIMAL makes sense. my code need needs to use NUMERIC type in spark2.4 version -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
