Hi Daniil, Many thanks for your interest. We haven't fully specified it yet (I'll build a full specification later this week). But I suspect the following would be involved: * Implementation of methods to handle MariaDB's DECIMAL format * Support for a longer than 8-byte numeric column type (there is an InfiniDB tree with work for this already) * Modification of the primitives processor for the math * Modification of the function expression processor to handle the new type * Version upgrade support for DECIMAL from the current form to the new form In the mean time please let me know if you have any questions. Kind Regards Andrew (Senior Software Engineer, MariaDB ColumnStore) On 19/03/17 23:09, Даниил Медведев wrote:
Hello,
I took part in GSoC last year, and closed one of MariaDB tasks. Now I want to continue programming with MariaDB developers and solve a new task. I considered some of proposed tasks, and was interested in "ColumnStore: Add full support for DECIMAL". I think this task is doable in the given time and I might solve it.
P.S. My github link: https://github.com/medvdanil
