Mithun Radhakrishnan created HCATALOG-641:
---------------------------------------------
Summary: HCatClient::createTable() doesn't allow SerDe class to be
specified.
Key: HCATALOG-641
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-641
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Bug
Components: client
Affects Versions: 0.5, 0.4.1
Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
Assignee: Mithun Radhakrishnan
HCatCreateTableDesc::Builder allows for StorageHandler to be specified, but not
the SerDe class. So if records are serialized (in custom row-format) to a known
file-format, there's no way for that table to be created (with the equivalent
of ROW FORMAT SERDE 'com.my.custom.SerDe' STORED AS sequencefile).
The workaround (for the moment) is to either only create tables using the hive
cli, or always specify a StorageHandler.
I've a patch to fix this.
