Support non-UTF8 data --------------------- Key: HIVE-1505 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1505 Project: Hadoop Hive Issue Type: New Feature Components: Serializers/Deserializers Affects Versions: 0.5.0 Reporter: bc Wong
I'd like to work with non-UTF8 data easily. Suppose I have data in latin1. Currently, doing a "select *" will return the upper ascii characters in '\xef\xbf\xbd', which is the replacement character '\ufffd' encoded in UTF-8. Would be nice for Hive to understand different encodings, or to have a concept of byte string. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
