Toivo Adams commented on NIFI-2624:
-----------------------------------
@ijokarumawak,
Sorry I didn't have time to look your code.
Your approach looks much better.
My only concern is – do we generate record which conforms to Avro standard?
Can any other consumer (outside NiFi) read our Avro record and get back same
BigDecimal?
@joewitt,
Right, let’s try to finish this.
Thanks
Toivo

> The original SQL processors implemented BigDecimal values as Strings for
> Avro, as the version of Avro it used (1.7.6) did not support DECIMAL type.
> As of Avro 1.7.7 (AVRO-1402), this type is supported and so the SQL/HiveQL
> processors should be updated to handle BigDecimals correctly if possible.
