Venki Korukanti commented on DRILL-3745:
----------------------------------------
Looks good. One other place where we need to handle CHAR is in Hive UDFs.
> Hive CHAR not supported
> -----------------------
>
> Key: DRILL-3745
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3745
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Nathaniel Auvil
> Assignee: Arina Ielchiieva
>
> It doesn’t look like Drill 1.1.0 supports the Hive CHAR type?
> In Hive:
> create table development.foo
> (
> bad CHAR(10)
> );
> And then in sqlline:
> > use `hive.development`;
> > select * from foo;
> Error: PARSE ERROR: Unsupported Hive data type CHAR.
> Following Hive data types are supported in Drill INFORMATION_SCHEMA:
> BOOLEAN, BYTE, SHORT, INT, LONG, FLOAT, DOUBLE, DATE, TIMESTAMP,
> BINARY, DECIMAL, STRING, VARCHAR, LIST, MAP, STRUCT and UNION
> [Error Id: 58bf3940-3c09-4ad2-8f52-d052dffd4b17 on dtpg05:31010]
> (state=,code=0)
> This was originally found when getting failures trying to connect via JDBS
> using Squirrel. We have the Hive plugin enabled with tables using CHAR.
