Vihang Karajgaonkar commented on HIVE-17580:
--------------------------------------------

latest patch restores {{Category}} enum back into {{ObjectInspector}} since 
apparently projects outside Hive also use it directly and moving it out of 
ObjectInspector will break stuff. This patch moves the {{ObjectInspector}} 
interface to storage-api instead of just moving Category out of it. This way 
compatibility is maintained and metastore can still access it without depending 
on hive-serde.

> Remove dependency of get_fields_with_environment_context API to serde

> {{get_fields_with_environment_context}} metastore API uses {{Deserializer}} 
> class to access the fields metadata for the cases where it is stored along 
> with the data files (avro tables). The problem is Deserializer classes is 
> defined in hive-serde module and in order to make metastore independent of 
> Hive we will have to remove this dependency (atleast we should change it to 
> runtime dependency instead of compile time).
> The other option is investigate if we can use SearchArgument to provide this 
> functionality.
