How do I set-up a filter constant for TIMESTAMP datatype. In Hive 0.7 since 
timestamps were represented as strings a query like this would return data

select * from LU_day where day_date ='2010-01-01 00:00:00';

But now with day_date as a TIMESTAMP column it doesn't. Is there some type of a 
TO_TIMESTAMP function in hive to convert the string constant into a TIMESTAMP 
one

As a workaround I can do

select * from LU_DAY where TO_DATE(day_date) = '2010-01-01' but that would be a 
problem for partitioning pruning, etc
