---------------------------------------
Summary: Add a strict check for when the decimal gets converted to
null due to insufficient width
Key: HIVE-13098
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13098
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin
When e.g. 999999 is selected as decimal(5,0), the result is null. This can be
problematic, esp. if the data is written to a table and lost without the user
realizing it. There should be an option to error out in such cases instead; it
should probably be on by default and the error message should instruct the user
on how to disable it.
