Hello All,
I have an avro schema that includes the following as a field:
{
"name" : "currency",
"type" : ["null","bytes"],
"logicalType": "decimal",
"precision": 9,
"scale": 4
},
When I run the avro-tools on it to create a java file representing the schema
it produces a property that looks like public java.nio.ByteBuffer currency;
However, in other parts of the program I'm using Scala with values in
BigDecimal types.
How can I convert a BigDecimal value to the expected ByteBuffer?
Is there anything special I need to do to ensure it is compatible with avro and
other tools like Impala?
Also is this the correct form to using currency values?
Cheers,
David Newberger
