Namit Jain commented on HIVE-127:
---------------------------------



causes null pointer exception when the serde of the table tries to use the conf.
Mostly, we use MetadataColumnTypedSerde which does not use it - so things work 
fine.

But, in case of optimizations (no mapreduce job) - select * from context where 
partitioning column conditions only

context serde uses conf and dies


> fetch task does not pass the job to the serde in initialize

> Fetch task passes a null job to the serde during initialize - it should not 
> assume that the serde does not need the job.
> This assumption is valid for MetadataTypedColumnSetSerde, but need not be 
> valid always
