Hey everyone,
I'm not sure if we already had a discussion about it but as we are
currently adding new types like the Either type, I would like to discuss
it again. I think especially for business or scientific applications it
makes sense to support the BigInteger and BigDecimal types natively. In
my opinion they are as important as Date or Void and should be added as
BasicTypes. I need them for the SQL prototype (FLINK-2099) but I think
people working with the Table API or Java/Scala API would also benefit
from it.
What do you think?
Regards,
Timo
