Michael J. Carey reassigned ASTERIXDB-2621:
-------------------------------------------
Assignee: Dmitry Lychagin
> Somewhat inconsistent type checking - precision loss without warning
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ASTERIXDB-2621
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-2621
> Project: Apache AsterixDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Nick DiGeronimo
> Assignee: Dmitry Lychagin
> Priority: Minor
>
> AsterixDB casts doubles/floats to integers with no warning. This can be risky
> for certain users since they might not be aware of the precision loss. Try
> the query below and 234.12 will become 234 with no warning. Not a big deal,
> but I think it's inconsistent with how AsterixDB behaves normally.
> DROP DATASET Inconvenient IF EXISTS;
> DROP TYPE InconvenientType IF EXISTS;
> CREATE TYPE InconvenientType AS OPEN {
> id: uuid,
> integerNumber: bigint
> };
> CREATE DATASET Inconvenient(InconvenientType) PRIMARY KEY id AUTOGENERATED;
> INSERT INTO Inconvenient(\{"integerNumber": 234.12});
> SELECT * FROM Inconvenient;
