Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-11985:
------------------------------------
I'm not sure if not storing the types in metastore poses a problem for the
following use case: user is able to create an ARVO table without giving an
external schema, such as
{code}
create table j2 (a int) stored as avro;
{code}
See some comments in HIVE-11827. However, I guess the test will catch it if so.
On the other hand, I really think that we should address the 4000 character
limitation somehow as the problem can happen to serdes other than AVRO.
> don't store type names in metastore when metastore type names are not used
