Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6316: -------------------------------------- Thanks [~eugene.koifman]. I've revised the Load & Store doc, trimming the data type tables down to bulleted lists with reference to the full table at the end of the doc (although I don't like the width of that table -- perhaps the release information shouldn't have its own column): * [HCatLoader Data Types | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HCatalog+LoadStore#HCatalogLoadStore-HCatLoaderDataTypes] * [HCatStorer Data Types | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HCatalog+LoadStore#HCatalogLoadStore-HCatStorerDataTypes] * [Data Type Mappings (full table) | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HCatalog+LoadStore#HCatalogLoadStore-DataTypeMappings] But I don't understand what's needed for the Input & Output doc, which has a different kind of table: * [HCat Record data types and Java classes | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HCatalog+InputOutput#HCatalogInputOutput-HCatRecord] > Document support for new types in HCat > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6316 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6316 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Documentation, HCatalog > Affects Versions: 0.13.0 > Reporter: Eugene Koifman > Assignee: Lefty Leverenz > > HIVE-5814 added support for new types in HCat. The PDF file in that bug > explains exactly how these map to Pig types. This should be added to the > Wiki somewhere (probably here > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HCatalog+LoadStore). > In particular it should be highlighted that copying data from Hive TIMESTAMP > to Pig DATETIME, any 'nanos' in the timestamp will be lost. Also, HCatStorer > now takes new parameter which is described in the PDF doc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
