Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-14950:
---------------------------------------
Thanks for asking, [~alangates]. Yes, the Data Types doc needs to be updated
in two or three places:
* [Overview -- NumericTypes |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-NumericTypes]
* [Column Types -- Integral Types (TINYINT, SMALLINT, INT, BIGINT) |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-IntegralTypes(TINYINT,SMALLINT,INT,BIGINT)]
* [Allowed Implicit Conversions |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-AllowedImplicitConversions]
If only I had a good side -- you'd be on it for sure. ;)

> adding an alias for int would be easy.
