Hi everyone, Currently carbon only supports altering schema for primitive types. We can extend it to complex columns too - 1) alter add complex column(array/struct) 2) alter drop complex column(array/struct) 3) alter change datatype/rename complex column(array/struct)
Here phase-1 focuses only on non-nested complex columns. Phase-2 will later target nested ones. Please let me know your valid inputs about the same. Following is the link to the design document. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DhhkVXM8rMvOuKDZeccJpFEfO3VkA9C0c7JHCV88NXI/edit Thanks, Akshay -- Sent from: http://apache-carbondata-dev-mailing-list-archive.1130556.n5.nabble.com/
