> Hi

> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5022 got fixed. But, I see the 
> same issue in Hive 1.0 and hive 1.2 as well.

> Rather then returning NULL, it should give error or round off.
> I understand that, I can use Double instead of decimal or can cast it, but 
> still returning "Null" will make many things go unnoticed.
