             Summary: Insert into Hive tables doesn't work for decimal numbers 
with no preceding digit before the decimal
                 Key: HIVE-24223
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24223
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: All Versions
            Reporter: Kriti Jha


Any insert operation to a table in Hive with decimal integers without a digit 
before the DOT ('.') fails with an exception as shown below:

------------------------------------------------------------------

hive> create table test_dec(id decimal(10,8));

hive> insert into test_dec values (-.5);

------------------------------------------------------------------

It seems to be coming from the Lexer where the types are defined and the 
definition of 'Number' should be coming into play: 
---------------------- 
Number : (Digit)+ ( DOT (Digit)* (Exponent)? | Exponent)? ; 
----------------------

However, the below works:

-> insert into test_dec values ('-.5');
-> insert into test_dec values (-0.5);
