Zoltán Borók-Nagy updated IMPALA-10358:
---------------------------------------
Description:
The Iceberg format spec defines what types to use for different type formats,
e.g.:
[https://iceberg.apache.org/spec/#parquet]
Impala should follow the specification:
* Strings in Iceberg tables should be annotated with UTF8 (when file format is
Parquet)
* Revise fixed(L) <-> CHAR(L) mapping
** CHAR(L) in Impala is annotated with UTF8
** fixed(L) is for fixed-length binary data
** We should probably remove this mapping
UPDATE: A [recent pull request|https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/1612]
added a new Iceberg class,
[HiveSchemaConverter|https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/master/mr/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/mr/hive/HiveSchemaConverter.java].
We should use this class to convert between Iceberg and Hive schemas.
