Prasad Chakka updated HIVE-405:
-------------------------------
Attachment: hive-405.patch
> Operators should pass ObjectInspector in init instead of forward
> ----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-405
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-405
> Project: Hadoop Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Query Processor
> Affects Versions: 0.4.0
> Reporter: Zheng Shao

>
> We are always passing the same ObjectInspector, so there is no need to pass
> it again and again in forward.
> Also there is a problem that can ONLY be fixed by passing ObjectInspector in
> init: Outer Joins - Outer Joins may not be able to get ObjectInspectors for
> all inputs, as a result, there is no way to construct an output
> ObjectInspector based on the inputs. Currently we have hard-coded code that
> assumes joins are always outputting Strings, which did break but was hidden
> by the old framework (because we do toString() when serializing the output,
> and toString() is defined for all Java Classes).
