Rui Li commented on HIVE-5871:
------------------------------
Thanks [~leftylev] that's very helpful. However I don't see a pencil icon in
the upper right corner of my comments. (There is one in the description
though). Wonder if I'm still missing something?

> By default, hive only allows user to use single character as field delimiter.
> Although there's RegexSerDe to specify multiple-character delimiter, it can
> be daunting to use, especially for amateurs.
> In the patch, I add a new SerDe named MultiDelimitSerDe. With
> MultiDelimitSerDe, users can specify a multiple-character field delimiter
> when creating tables, in a way most similar to typical table creations.
