Sathish commented on HIVE-7850: ------------------------------- Thanks Ryan, Based on your comments it looks like no particular changed needed in the Hive serde side for handling Non nullable arrays and Parquet Avro library needs to be fixed to convert the schema format properly. I am planning to work on fixing the parquet Avro library for properly generating the parquet files with schema understandable by the Hive, I will update my findings once my changes are done. > Hive Query failed if the data type is array<string> with parquet files > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7850 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7850 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Serializers/Deserializers > Affects Versions: 0.14.0, 0.13.1 > Reporter: Sathish > Assignee: Sathish > Labels: parquet, serde > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-7850.1.patch, HIVE-7850.2.patch, HIVE-7850.patch > > > * Created a parquet file from the Avro file which have 1 array data type and > rest are primitive types.
