Rahul Challapalli created DRILL-4772:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Corrections required for the "Supported Data Types"
documentation page
Key: DRILL-4772
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4772
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 1.7.0
Reporter: Rahul Challapalli
The documentation page at [1] needs some corrections
{code}
"In this release, Drill disables the DECIMAL data type" : Modify this to
mention the specific release
"CHAR datatype is mentioned as supported" : At-least the hive storage plugin
only supports "char" datatype from 1.7 release.
"Currently, Drill supports only variable-length strings." : This statement in
doc contradicts the above statement. The doc should say that "CHAR" datatype is
internally represented as "VARCHAR" by drill.
