Mona Chitnis commented on PIG-3558:
-----------------------------------
If Hive type Binary is equated to Pig's bytearray
{code}
public static Object getPrimaryFromOrc(Object obj, PrimitiveObjectInspector
poi) {
Object result;
switch (poi.getPrimitiveCategory()) {
. . .
case BINARY:
result = new DataByteArray(((BytesWritable) obj).copyBytes());
break;
{code}
Is there a reason we cannot typecast it back to Binary during a store back to
Orc? I can make it work by explicitly casting that column to int but I'd like
to confirm it doesnt violate any Hive metadata serialization.
