I understand that, but isn't it the purpose of displaying the data types is so the
user can select a different one (if they choose). Otherwise, why display the list. Just
go ahead and map the default design type.

Confusing data type "integer" and "int"

Key: TEIIDDES-2256
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-2256
Project: Teiid Designer
Issue Type: Enhancement
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Import/Export
Affects Versions: 8.6
Reporter: Ramesh Reddy
Assignee: Paul Richardson
Fix For: 8.7, 8.6.1
Attachments: full-datatypes-1.png, full-datatypes-2.png, set-datatype-dialog.png,

I understand that
"integer" maps to "xs:biginteger"
"int" maps "xs:long"
How they are confusing when there is already one available for biginteger. Also the Table
creation wizard does not provide option to to select "int". When user chooses
"integer" it often is "int".
This confusion needs to be resolved. IMO "integer" can be removed, however I am
not sure how it effects data type system
