Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-3163: --------------------------------------- It's not the case that this static list is the only way for a table to be columnist the avro deserializer does not add itself to the list and still can do this. I just created a protobuf serde that does this as well and is not in the list. Still jot exactly sure why anything needs to be listed here. > enhance Deserialize to add a method to show whether the column names are > derived from the Deserializer > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3163 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3163 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Serializers/Deserializers > Reporter: Namit Jain > > There are some serdes: ThriftDeserializer and AvroDeserilizer which > contain the column information. I mean, the user does not need to specify the > column schema. > Currently, this information is hard-coded. SerDeUtils has a method to get this > information from the name of the serde. > Ideally, Deserializer should be extended to add this method. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
