AVRO-1402. Support for DECIMAL type (as a record mapping).
> Support for DECIMAL primitive type
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1402
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1402
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.7.5
> Reporter: Mariano Dominguez
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: Hive
> Attachments: AVRO-1402.patch, AVRO-1402.patch, AVRO-1402.patch,
> AVRO-1402.patch, UnixEpochRecordMapping.patch
>
>
> Currently, Avro does not seem to support a DECIMAL type or equivalent.
> http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.5/spec.html#schema_primitive
> Adding DECIMAL support would be particularly interesting when converting
> types from Avro to Hive, since DECIMAL is already a supported data type in
> Hive (0.11.0).
