Barry LaFond commented on TEIIDDES-2256:
----------------------------------------
I can map the "integer" from the Teiid DDL importer to "int" so the
design-time type is set properly.
The dialog changes would be used when changing/setting a specific datatype for a column
via *Modeling > Set Datatype* action.
Confusing data type "integer" and "int"

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

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
