Brock Noland commented on HIVE-8950: ------------------------------------ Could you add some unit tests for {{ColInfoFromParquetFile}}? For example the {{*.parquet}} files in https://github.com/apache/hive/tree/trunk/data/files > Add support in ParquetHiveSerde to create table schema from a parquet file > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-8950 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8950 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ashish Kumar Singh > Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh > Attachments: HIVE-8950.patch > > > PARQUET-76 and PARQUET-47 ask for creating parquet backed tables without > having to specify the column names and types. As, parquet files store schema > in their footer, it is possible to generate hive schema from parquet file's > metadata. This will improve usability of parquet backed tables. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
