[jira] [Created] (DRILL-583) Decimal in CAST function

James Duong created DRILL-583:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Decimal in CAST function
                 Key: DRILL-583
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-583
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: James Duong
            Priority: Minor


Running the query 
{code}
SELECT cast(1 AS decimal) FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.`TABLES` LIMIT 1 
{code}
seems to return a FLOAT8 instead of a decimal.

We need to be able to specify the exact decimal type (eg DECIMAL28SPARSE), as well as the precision/scale for it in the cast operator too.
