Min Zhou commented on HIVE-577: ------------------------------- I guessed it's cumbersome to deal with custom tables from current api provided by hive currently. ddl for schema should changed from struct{ type1 col1, type2 col2} to some format like struct{ struct{type1 col1, string comment1}, struct{type2 col2, string comment2}} however, MetaStoreUtils.getDDLFromFieldSchema(structName, fieldSchemas) is not only for getSchema(table). > return correct comment of a column from ThriftHiveMetastore.Iface.get_fields > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-577 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-577 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Min Zhou > Assignee: Min Zhou > Attachments: HIVE-577.1.patch, HIVE-577.2.patch > > > comment of each column hasnot been retrieved correct right now , > FieldSchema.getComment() will return a string "from derserializer". -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
