> This bug is part of a series of issues and surprising behavior I encountered writing a reporting script that would aggregate values and give rows different classifications based on an the aggregate. Addressing some or all of these issues would make HPL/SQL more accessible to newcomers.
> Consider this code:
> {code}
> val1d := cast('10.0' as double);
> val2d := cast('5.0' as double);
> declare val1i int = 5;
> declare val2i int = 5;
> val1i = val1d;
> diff := val1i - val2i;
> {code}
> What is the value of diff? You might think it is 5 but in fact it is 0. Why? Because when you attempt to assign val1i to val1d, this code in Var.java is executed:
> {code}
> else if (type == Type.BIGINT) {
> if (val.type == Type.STRING) {
> value = Long.parseLong((String)val.value);
> }
> }
> else if (type == Type.DECIMAL) {
> {code}
> Since there is no case for assigning a double to a bigint, the expression is essentially ignored and the value remains the same. This behavior leads to many surprising results.
> It would be best if HPL/SQL could re-use the cast code from Hive since there are a lot of cases to consider.
