Jie Li commented on HIVE-3323: ------------------------------ >From the discussion I can see the proposal of >"hive.data.convert.enum.to.string" but it was not in the final patch..... > 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 > Fix For: 0.10.0 > > 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, > HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.6.patch, HIVE-3323_enum_to_string.8.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 was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
