            Reporter: Anurag Srivastava

I am trying to use Char data type with Carbon Data latest version and it 
created successfully. When I started loading data in this that time I found 
that it is taking data more then its size. 

I have checked it with hive and there it is working fine.

EX :- 

1. *Carbon Data :* 

1.1 create table test_carbon (name char(10)) stored by 
'org.apache.carbondata.format';

1.2 desc test_carbon;

*Output :* 
+-------------+--------------+----------+--+
| col_name | data_type  | comment   |
+-------------+--------------+--------------+
| name        | string         |                  |
+-------------+--------------+--------------+

1.3 LOAD DATA INPATH 'hdfs://localhost:54310/test.csv' into table test_carbon 
OPTIONS ('FILEHEADER'='name');

1.4 select * from test_carbon;

*Output :* 
+------------------------+
|        name               |
+------------------------+
| Anurag Srivasrata  |
| Robert                    |
| james james           |
+------------------------+

2. *Hive :* 

2.1 create table test_hive (name char(10));

2.2 desc test_hive;

*Output :* 
+-------------+--------------+-------------+
| col_name | data_type  | comment  |
+-------------+--------------+-------------+
| name        | char(10)    | NULL       |
+-------------+--------------+-------------+


2.3 LOAD DATA INPATH 'hdfs://localhost:54310/test.csv' into table test_hive;

2.4 select * from test_hive;

*Output :* 
+----------------+
|    name         |
+----------------+
| james jame   |
| Anurag Sri    |
| Robert          |
+----------------+

So as hive truncate remaining string with Char data type in carbon data it 
should work like hive.
