Mario Fusco commented on DROOLS-1378:
-------------------------------------
[~tkobayashi] I don't understand why an user may want to put a text into a cell with
Numeric type. Is there a valid use for this?
In general we should stop trying to parse any sort of garbage thrown in by users. This
sort of guesses and type coercions causes many more damages than benefit on the long term
and once they are in you cannot get rid of them anymore, otherwise you'll break
compatibility.
Option: Force reading String from a Numeric type cell in SpreadSheet

Key: DROOLS-1378
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-1378
Project: Drools
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: decision tables
Affects Versions: 7.0.0.Beta4
Reporter: Toshiya Kobayashi
Assignee: Mario Fusco
org.drools.decisiontable.parser.xls.ExcelParser reads a double value from a Numeric type
cell. But some users expect as-is String representation rather than a double value. Users
may force String type by adding heading ' (apostrophe) in the cell but sometimes it
could be cumbersome.
This JIRA requests an option to force reading String from a Numeric type cell in
SpreadSheet.
