Bug report

What Debezium connector do you use and what version?

debezium-ibmi-connector 2.6.0

What is the connector configuration?

What is the captured database version and mode of depoyment?

on prem db2 ibmi

What behaviour do you expect?

to be able to stream tables with booleans

In V7R5 and later V7R4, IBM released support for BOOLEAN data types. When using this connector with a table that contains a BOOLEAN datatype, a hard error is thrown.

What behaviour do you see?

the connector fails when it findds a table with a boolean

Do you see the same behaviour using the latest relesead Debezium version?

yes

Do you have the connector logs, ideally from start till finish?

some logs avaiable in the original bug report for original external connector pre adoption https://github.com/jhc-systems/debezium-connector-ibmi/issues/73

How to reproduce the issue using our tutorial deployment?

<Your answer>

Implementation ideas (optional)

It looks like there's no as400boolean type so we ill have to decode the journal entries without library help

I suggest getting an extract of the journal entry with  single boolean before a known string and then multiples if 8 booleans between the known string to check if any packing is performed

Sadly our IBMI hasn't been upgraded

I can probaly take a look at this but I'm quite busy
