Description (last modified by Tim Graham)

When I cast a FloatField to Decimal, I get an error from MySQL.

Seen in django 1.11.16 on MariaDB.

Model:

class MyModel(models.Model):
    floatfield = models.FloatField()
    decimalfield = models.DecimalField(decimal_places=2, max_digits=12)

Query:

MyModel.objects.all().annotate(
    floatfield_decimal=Cast('floatfield', DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=2))).aggregate(
    revenue=Sum(F('floatfield_decimal') * F('decimalfield'))
)['revenue']

Then I see this error:

{ProgrammingError}(1064, "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'numeric(8, 2)) AS `floatfield_decimal`, `myclass`.`decimalfield' at line 1")

I guess the numeric should be Decimal... It's not possible to examine the query further from the debugger.
