Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-584:
-------------------------------------
As a first cut at testing a fix for this issue, try running
DatabaseMetaDataTest and the compatibility tests. When those run cleanly, you
should try the full regression test suite.
> Mismatch between DatabaseMetaData and ResultSetMetaData for NUMERIC type
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-584
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-584
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JDBC, Network Client
> Affects Versions: 10.1.1.0
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Labels: derby_triage10_5_2
>
> The Derby Reference Manual says that NUMERIC is a synonyn for DECIMAL. If you
> create a NUMERIC column, the Derby client DatabaseMetaData reports that the
> type is java.sql.NUMERIC. However, if you select from the table, the
> ResultSetMetaData reports that the type is java.sql.DECIMAL.
> I don't really care what type we report. I just think we should be consistent.
