Hey guys,
I wrote a SerDe to support lwes (http://lwes.org) using BinarySortableSerDe
as a model.
The code is very similar, and I serialize an lwes event to a BytesWritable,
and deserialize from it.
Serialization is fine...however, when I run an insert into... select, the
Deserialize methods is passed a Text object instead of a BytesWritable
object like expected.
Hive generates 2 jobs, and it fails on the mapper in the second.
getSerializedClass() is set correctly:
public Class<? extends Writable> getSerializedClass() {
LOG.debug("JournalSerDe::getSerializedClass()");
return BytesWritable.class;
}
And I don't see any relevant difference between BinarySortableSerDe and my
code.
Does anybody have a hint on what may be happening ?
Thanks,
Roberto
