Scott Gray created HCATALOG-475:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Partitioned columns are always returned as type STRING
regardless of defined type
Key: HCATALOG-475
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-475
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Bug
Components: mapreduce
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Scott Gray
When querying tables partitioned on non-string columns, the value returned from
hcatalog is always string. For example, given the following table:
create table part_int (
c1 int,
c2 string
partitioned by (c_part int)
row format delimited
fields terminated by ','
collection items terminated by '|'
map keys terminated by '^'
lines terminated by '\n';
;
When reading from the table, inspecting the HCatRecord that comes back shows
the following object types:
java.lang.Integer
java.lang.String
java.lang.String
This happens either with or without an explicitly provided output schema.
