Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-2666:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks for the ping [~proftodd], sorry that I've missed your previous message.
Now that SQOOP-1493 has been committed, for decimal columns we will
automatically create {{scale}} and {{precision}} fields as is requested by
[Avro schema|http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.8.0/spec.html#Decimal] definition.
Hence I'm wondering what is the value to also append {{sqlScale}} and
{{sqlPrecision}} fields? Shouldn't the users be just able to use
{{scale}}/{{precision}} instead?
> Write precision and scale information into Avro schema
