Namit Jain commented on HIVE-777:
---------------------------------
Do we want to support this ? or go the other route of first creating a type:
for eg:
create type addata (adid int, location string);
CREATE TABLE abc (
pageid INT,
ads addata,
userid INT
);
That way the same type can be used across multiple tables - you can select from
one and insert into another etc.
Type will be a first class citizen, it can be passed to udfs, can be described
etc.
> CREATE TABLE with STRUCT type
