Travis Crawford commented on HIVE-3323: --------------------------------------- Hey all, any chance I could get some feedback on this patch? Today we found another thrift-related issue where a struct with no fields is not handled correctly (yes a bizarre field choice but valid thrift). Fixing would depend on updating megastruct and its test (added here), and I'd like to avoid piling more changes into this patch. > Enable enum to string conversions > --------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3323 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3323 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Travis Crawford > Assignee: Travis Crawford > Attachments: HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.1.patch, > HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.2.patch, HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.3.patch, > HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.4.patch, HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.5.patch > > > When using serde-reported schemas with the ThriftDeserializer, Enum fields > are presented as {{struct<value:int>}} > Many users expect to work with the string values, which is both easier and > more meaningful as the string value communicates what is represented. > Hive should provide a mechanism to optionally convert enum values to strings. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
