Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-9500: ------------------------------------- To summarize, I felt users are less likely to shoot themselves in the foot with the limit of 24 chars (in case they didn't escape), and are dealing with 'normal' english chars. > Support nested structs over 24 levels. > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-9500 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9500 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Aihua Xu > Labels: SerDe > > Currently we support up to 24 levels of nested structs when > hive.serialization.extend.nesting.levels is set to true, while the customers > have the requirement to support more than that. > It would be better to make the supported levels configurable or completely > removed (i.e., we can support any number of levels). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
