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

             Summary:  Sqoop2: JDBC Connector and KiteConnector need to send 
BigDecimal for decimal type in Object array
                 Key: SQOOP-2035
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2035
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Veena Basavaraj
            Assignee: Veena Basavaraj
             Fix For: 1.99.5


we need to handle scale and precision and make sure we instantiate the 
bigDecimal correctly 

We also need to make scale and precision mandatory to avoid confusion for 
connectors while they map their types
{code}
public class Decimal extends AbstractNumber {

  /**
   * Number of valid numbers.
   */
  private Long precision;

  /**
   * Number of decimal places.
   */
  private Long scale;

{code}

IDF java handling today is very lame!
{code}

  public static Object toDecimal(String csvString, Column column) {
    return new BigDecimal(csvString);
  }
{code}

3. there is no single unit test today with the values for precision and scale, 
so we need to define what those values are for Long
