Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-4885: ----------------------------------- [~appodictic] I'm open to any alternative approaches while having this temp fix to keep my effort in JDK7 support going. In fact, that's the whole reason to have discussions about kryo, or Jackson for that matter, in HIVE-1511. It doesn't appear to me that we are settling on anything any time soon. And, we will continue that discussion. > Alternative object serialization for execution plan in hive testing > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4885 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4885 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: CLI > Affects Versions: 0.10.0, 0.11.0 > Reporter: Xuefu Zhang > Assignee: Xuefu Zhang > Fix For: 0.12.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-4885.patch > > > Currently there are a lot of test cases involving in comparing execution > plan, such as those in TestParse suite. XmlEncoder is used to serialize the > generated plan by hive, and store it in the file for file diff comparison. > However, XmlEncoder is tied with Java compiler, whose implementation may > change from version to version. Thus, upgrade the compiler can generate a lot > of fake test failures.
