Hi Everyone, I am working on HIVE-26276 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26276> , Idea is to to deprecate contrib RegexSerDe and merge any functionality difference in serde2 Regex <https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/ae008b79b5d52ed6a38875b73025a505725828eb/serde/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/serde2/RegexSerDe.java>. I noticed a big difference between the two is new RegexSerDe implementation doesn't support serialization (HIVE-1719 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1719>). We can't remove contrib RegexSerDe until we support insert into the table. I am wondering if we can copy the doSerialize() from old to new? Any thoughts why this feature was removed?
Thanks! Riju Trivedi
