             Summary: Remove unlimited DecimalType
                 Key: SPARK-9069
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9069
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Davies Liu
            Assignee: Davies Liu
            Priority: Blocker


We should remove DecimalType.Unlimited, because BigDecimal does not really 
support unlimited precision, especially for division.

We can have maximum precision as 38 (to match with Hive 0.13+). The default 
precision and scale could be (38, 18).
