------------------------------------
Summary: webhcat should be able to return detailed serde
information when show table using "fromat=extended"
Key: HIVE-6044
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6044
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Shuaishuai Nie
Assignee: Shuaishuai Nie
Now in webhcat, when using GET ddl/database/:db/table/:table and
"format=extended", return value is based on query "show table extended like".
However, this query doesn't contains serde info like "line.delim" and
"filed.delim". In this case, user won't have enough information to reconstruct
the exact same table based on the information from the json file. The
"descExtendedTable" function in HcatDelegator should also return extra fields
from query "desc extended tablename" which contains fields "sd", "retention",
"parameters" "parametersSize" and "tableType".
