[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-18704) Support DECIMAL types in datagen
Table source connector
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18704?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17177010#comment-17177010 ]
Michael Gendelman commented on FLINK-18704:
-------------------------------------------
[~fhueske] I'd like to work on this.
I'm wondering is the signature should receive BigDecimal? If it does we will need to convert to float/double and it might return NEGATIVE_INFINITY/POSITIVE_INFINITY.

> Key: FLINK-18704
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18704
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Table SQL / Ecosystem
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0, 1.11.1
> Reporter: Fabian Hueske
> Priority: Major
> Labels: starter
>
> It would be great if the [{{datagen}} source connector|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.11/dev/table/connectors/datagen.html] would support {{DECIMAL}} types.
> Since data is randomly generated and FLOAT and DOUBLE are supported, we could implement this feature by creatig a {{BigDecimal}} from a random float.
