Zheng Shao commented on HIVE-65:
--------------------------------

@joydeep: There are 2 drawbacks:

1. Authors of udf need to be aware of that.  In oracle, the system does take 
care of double -> string in udf so authors don't have to do it.
2. string -> int is lossy. The result of '1.1' = 1 will be true under our 
agreed conversion partial order (string -> byte -> short -> int -> ... -> 
double). But both mysql and oracle output that as FALSE.



> Implict conversion from integer to long broken for Dynamic Serde tables

> For a dynamic serde table that has a bigint column, implict conversion from 
> int to bigint seems to be broken. I have not verified this for other tables.
