internationalization support and sort order (ascedning/descending) support in
create table
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-4085
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4085
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: contrib/hive
Reporter: Namit Jain
User cannot specify utf8 strings in the query, both for selection and
filtering. Mysql syntax should be followed:
select _utf8 'string' from <TableName>
select <selectExpr> from <TableName> where col = _utf8 0x<HexValue>
To start with, utf8 strings should be supported. Support for other character
sets can be added in the future on demand.
The identifiers (table name/column name etc.) cannot be utf8 strings, it is
only for the data values.
Although, in create table, the user has the option of specifying sorted
columns, he does not have the option of specifying whether they are ascending
or descending.
Create Table syntax should be enhanced to support that.
