             Summary: Describe Extended output is truncated on a table with an 
explicit row format containing tabs or newlines.
                 Key: HIVE-18367
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18367
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Andrew Sherman
            Assignee: Andrew Sherman


'Describe Extended' dumps information about a table. The protocol for sending 
this data relies on tabs and newlines to separate pieces of data. If a table 
has 'FIELDS terminated by XXX' or 'LINES terminated by XXX' where XXX is a tab 
or newline then the output seen by the user is prematurely truncated. Fix this 
by replacing tabs and newlines in the table description with “\n” and “\t”.
