Class DecimalType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    @PublicEvolving
    public final class DecimalType
    extends LogicalType
    Logical type of a decimal number with fixed precision and scale.

    The serialized string representation is DECIMAL(p, s) where p is the number of digits in a number (=precision) and s is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in a number (=scale). p must have a value between 1 and 38 (both inclusive). s must have a value between 0 and p (both inclusive). The default value for p is 10. The default value for s is 0. NUMERIC(p, s) and DEC(p, s) are synonyms for this type.

      • copy

        public LogicalType copy​(boolean isNullable)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns a deep copy of this type with possibly different nullability.
        Specified by:
        copy in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        isNullable - the intended nullability of the copied type
        Returns:
        a deep copy
      • asSerializableString

        public String asSerializableString()
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns a string that fully serializes this instance. The serialized string can be used for transmitting or persisting a type.

        See LogicalTypeParser for the reverse operation.

        Specified by:
        asSerializableString in class LogicalType
        Returns:
        detailed string for transmission or persistence
      • supportsInputConversion

        public boolean supportsInputConversion​(Class<?> clazz)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns whether an instance of the given class can be represented as a value of this logical type when entering the table ecosystem. This method helps for the interoperability between JVM-based languages and the relational type system.

        A supported conversion directly maps an input class to a logical type without loss of precision or type widening.

        For example, java.lang.Long or long can be used as input for BIGINT independent of the set nullability.

        Specified by:
        supportsInputConversion in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        clazz - input class to be converted into this logical type
        Returns:
        flag that indicates if instances of this class can be used as input into the table ecosystem

        LogicalType.getDefaultConversion()
      • supportsOutputConversion

        public boolean supportsOutputConversion​(Class<?> clazz)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns whether a value of this logical type can be represented as an instance of the given class when leaving the table ecosystem. This method helps for the interoperability between JVM-based languages and the relational type system.

        A supported conversion directly maps a logical type to an output class without loss of precision or type widening.

        For example, java.lang.Long or long can be used as output for BIGINT if the type is not nullable. If the type is nullable, only java.lang.Long can represent this.

        Specified by:
        supportsOutputConversion in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        clazz - output class to be converted from this logical type
        Returns:
        flag that indicates if instances of this class can be used as output from the table ecosystem
