> Question: Do we need to modify type handling in `ConstantValueLongDictionary`, `ConstantValueIntDictionary`, `ConstantValueFloatDictionary`, and `ConstantValueDoubleDictionary` (like what was done for `IntDictionary`, `FloatDictionary`, and `LongDictionary`)? What are ConstantValueXXXDictionary classes used for? These are used for addiing a dictionary to a column in a CONSUMING segment, when a column is added as the segment is being consumed. We reflect the default value (coded in the constantValue*Dictionary) for the life of the consuming segment. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
