Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-8205:
--------------------------------------

Does this need documentation?  The Parquet wikidoc has examples with strings in 
map, array, and struct for Hive 0.10 - 0.12 as well as Hive 0.13+.

* [Parquet -- HiveQL Syntax -- Hive 0.10 - 0.12 | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Parquet#Parquet-Hive0.10-0.12]
* [Parquet -- HiveQL Syntax -- Hive 0.13 and later | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Parquet#Parquet-Hive0.13andlater]
* [Parquet -- Limitations | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Parquet#Parquet-Limitations]

> In HIVE-7735, schema info was plumbed to ETypeConverter to disambiguate 
> between hive Char, Varchar and String types, which are all represented as 
> PrimitiveType "binary" and OriginalType "utf8" in parquet.
> However, this does not work for parquet nested types (that map to hive Array, 
> Map, etc.) containing these values, because schema lookup for nested values 
> was not implemented.  It's also non-trivial to do that in the current parquet 
> serde implementation. Instead of plumbing in the schema, we should convert 
> these types to the same Text writeable and let the object inspectors handle 
> the final conversion.
