Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-2903:
----------------------------------------
@Navis,
The way you have fixed it, it will work only if data is written from hive into
hbase and then queries are run from hive client against hbase. What if data was
written in hbase through hbase client and then queried from hive client, this
bug will still be there, isn't it?
This also makes me wonder that this problem is not limited to hive, but for
hbase in general. If you are writing data through hbase client and then do
range scans, you will have same bug. There must be some solution in hbase space
for this.
