Matt Burgess commented on DRILL-1644:
-------------------------------------
This could be done hierarchically with inheritance, or perhaps a different
approach entirely, such as using Avatica's AbstractCursor.Getter impls as
suggested by Julian Hyde
> Promote data types where prudent

> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Execution - Data Types
> Reporter: Matt Burgess

> Drill data types should support "promotion" of data types where it makes

> NullableBitAccessor should implement getBoolean()
> NullablleIntAccessor should implement getShort(), etc.
> NullableBigIntAccessor should implement getInt(), etc.
