Store precision of DECFLOAT in RDB$FIELDS
-----------------------------------------
Key: CORE-5705
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5705
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Engine
Reporter: Mark Rotteveel
Priority: Minor
Currently when creating a DECFLOAT(16) or DECFLOAT(34) column, the
RDB$FIELD_PRECISION is left NULL. I think it would be helpful if this column is
populated with the specified precision (16 or 34).
This has the advantage of forwards compatibility, if we ever decide to support
DECFLOAT(n) with values other than 16 or 34, but backed by the current
Decimal64 or Decimal128 storage.
