Gary Colman created HIVE-3818:
---------------------------------
Summary: Identify VOID datatype in generated table and notify the
user accordingly
Key: HIVE-3818
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3818
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Serializers/Deserializers
Reporter: Gary Colman
Priority: Trivial
When using rcfile as a datastore, generating a table from a select statement
with a null field results in a void data type, and throws an exception
(Internal error: no LazyObject for VOID).
eg.
set hive.default.fileformat=RCFILE;
CREATE TABLE test_table AS SELECT NULL, key FROM src;
Make the message to the user a little more intuitive.
