Re: Right way to insert to timestamp column via Java api

Thanks very much Dan. Yes, I linked to impala because end-goal is to have column there defined with TIMESTAMP and display as such in query results, and it has the info on precision of both impala and kudu timestamps. Understood on the api usage. Might be nice though to document the addLong metho
