Owen O'Malley commented on HIVE-4579: ------------------------------------- Eric, In the current subset of SARGS, it isn't strictly required to track nulls, but if we want to support a little richer expressions we will. For example (c1 = c2) <=> (c1 != c2) is true if either c1 or c2 is null. Gunther, * +1 for changing the hive storage handlers to use the SARG interface. * I'll add a comment about regenerating the test cases. > Create a SARG interface for RecordReaders > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4579 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4579 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Attachments: h-4579.patch, HIVE-4579.D11409.1.patch, pushdown.pdf > > > I think we should create a SARG (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sargable) > interface for RecordReaders. For a first pass, I'll create an API that uses > the value stored in hive.io.filter.expr.serialized. > The desire is to define an simpler interface that the direct AST expression > that is provided by hive.io.filter.expr.serialized so that the code to > evaluate expressions can be generalized instead of put inside a particular > RecordReader. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
