Raghotham Murthy commented on HIVE-577:
---------------------------------------

@prasad. if we have a hiveserver, they can use describe statements to get the 
schema. Driver.getSchema() cannot really use get_fields() directly since all 
calls are done via a query string - i guess there is a different code path 
which extracts the fields/types and comments for describe queries. maybe, we 
should unify that as well.

> return correct comment of a column from ThriftHiveMetastore.Iface.get_fields
