Van Halbert commented on TEIIDDES-2256:
---------------------------------------
But I think the remapping of the data type at import time would be beneficial (and more
efficient) when the user can change the mapping at import time and also indicate (if we
add the option) to do this for all columns of this 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
