Review request for hive, Ashutosh Chauhan and Jakob Homan.
Changes
-------
New patch that addressed Carl's review comments.
This patch addressed the following missing functions.
1. Create AVRO table from using HIVE schema ( w/o specifying Avro Schema).
2. Copy AVRO table structure and data from existing non-AVRO table using CTAS.
3. Copy AVRO table structure and data from existing AVRO table using CTAS.
Note: We can close dependent JIRA HIVE-5803 that is no longer required. Another
JIRA has already taken care of this.
Bugs: HIVE-3159
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3159
Repository: hive-git
Description
-------
Problem:
Hive doesn't support to create a Avro-based table using HQL create table
command. It currently requires to specify Avro schema literal or schema file
name.
For multiple cases, it is very inconvenient for user.
Some of the un-supported use cases:
1. Create table ... <Avro-SERDE etc.> as SELECT ... from <NON-AVRO FILE>
2. Create table ... <Avro-SERDE etc.> as SELECT from <AVRO TABLE>
3. Create table without specifying Avro schema.

Testing
-------
Wrote a new java Test class for a new Java class. Added a new test case into
existing java test class. In addition, there are 4 .q file for testing multiple
use-cases.
Thanks,
