Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-7892:
--------------------------------------
Should this be documented in the wiki?
We don't have a wikidoc for the Thrift SerDe (but probably should). Here are
some places it is mentioned:
* [Developer Guide -- Hive SerDe |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/DeveloperGuide#DeveloperGuide-HiveSerDe]
* [SerDe -- Built-in SerDes |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/SerDe#SerDe-Built-inSerDes]
Hive complex types are documented here:
* [Hive Data Types -- Complex Types |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-ComplexTypes]

> Thrift supports List, Map and Struct complex types, which get mapped to
> Array, Map and Struct complex types in Hive respectively. However thrift Set
> type doesn't seem to be working.
> Here is an example thrift struct:
> {noformat}
> namespace java sample.thrift
> struct setrow {
> 1: required set<i32> ids,
> 2: required string name,
> }
> {noformat}
> A Hive table is created with ROW FORMAT SERDE
> 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.thrift.ThriftDeserializer' WITH
> SERDEPROPERTIES ('serialization.class'='sample.thrift.setrow',
> 'serialization.format'='org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol').
> Describing the table shows:
> {noformat}
> hive> describe settable;
> OK
> ids struct<> from deserializer
> name string from deserializer
> {noformat}
> Issuing a select query on set column throws SemanticException:
> {noformat}
> hive> select ids from settable;
> FAILED: SemanticException java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error: name
> expected at the position 7 of 'struct<>' but '>' is found.
> {noformat}
