             Summary: Parquet format table estimate column width meets error 
for bpchar type
                 Key: HAWQ-1167
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-1167
             Project: Apache HAWQ
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Storage
            Reporter: Lili Ma
            Assignee: Lei Chang


In function estimateColumnWidth, the atttypmod attribute for type bpchar may be 
-1, and will provide wrong value to columnWidths. Should estimate a valid 
length for any type.
{code}
                case HAWQ_TYPE_BPCHAR:
                        /* for char(n), atttypmod is n + 4 */
                        Assert(att->atttypmod > 4);
                        columnWidths[(*colidx)++] = att->atttypmod;
{code}
Reproduce type:
1. create table A(a int, b bpchar);
2. select oid from pg_class where relname='a';
3. select attname, atttypmod from pg_attribute where attrelid=$oid

will see the atttypmod is -1, thus will bring error.
