[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-5499) Add a json type

[Steven Hawkins (Jira)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-5499?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13646805#comment-13646805 ] 

Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-5499:
---------------------------------------

There is a small for this to be a breaking change - a view defined explicitly expecting a clob, but that uses a json returning function.  As of now that seems limited enough to not introduce any additional changes for.

> The initial design of a json type was a simple extension of the clob type - mostly for runtime differentiation so that parsing could be selectively skipped.
> Since the json type is supported by postgresql we should allow that to be conveyed at least in the odbc metadata - and it would probably be best to have a full json type.
