Hari Sankar Sivarama Subramaniyan updated HIVE-5202:
----------------------------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
> Support for SettableUnionObjectInspector and implement
> isSettable/hasAllFieldsSettable APIs for all data types.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-5202
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5202
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Hari Sankar Sivarama Subramaniyan

> Fix For: 0.13.0

> Attachments: HIVE-5202.2.patch.txt, HIVE-5202.patch

>
> These 3 tasks should be accomplished as part of the following jira:
> 1. The current implementation lacks settable union object inspector. We can
> run into exception inside ObjectInspectorConverters.getConvertedOI() if there
> is a union.
> 2. Implement the following public functions for all datatypes:
> isSettable()-> Perform shallow check to see if an object inspector is
> inherited from settableOI type and
> hasAllFieldsSettable() -> Perform deep check to see if this objectInspector
> and all the underlying object inspectors are inherited from settableOI type.
> 3. ObjectInspectorConverters.getConvertedOI() is inefficient. Once (1) and
> (2) are implemented, add the following check: outputOI.hasAllSettableFields()
> should be added to return outputOI immediately if the object is entirely
> settable in order to prevent redundant object instantiation.
