Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-4081:
--------------------------------------
Why make {{isValidDecimalValue}} so permissive? If the value is null, or the
type is not DECIMAL, it should just throw. Fail fast. Fewer lines of code. Less
testing required.
I call this "over-defensive coding". It doesn't do anyone any favors.

> Key: CALCITE-4081
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-4081
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Steven Talbot

> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available

> Time Spent: 2h 20m

> Take the following SQL:
> SELECT CAST('11111111111111111111111111111111.111111' AS DECIMAL(38,6)) AS
> "num"
> And, in the default Calcite SQL dialect with all defaults, send it through
> Planner parse -> valiate -> rel to get a RelNode. The RelNode will have a
> Project with the "111111111111111.11111" literal in there as a RexLiteral
> with Decimal type.
>
> The use RelToSqlConverter to convert that RelNode back to SQL. The SQL now
> looks like
> SELECT 11111111111111111111111111111111.111111 AS "num"
>
> If you attempt to parse and validate that SQL, you get "Numeric literal
> '11111111111111111111111111111111.111111' out of range" throw by
> SqlValidatorImpl.validateLiteral()
