> Key: HIVE-5999

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Beeline, Database/Schema, Hive
> Affects Versions: 0.12.0
> Reporter: Mariano Dominguez
> Assignee: Nemon Lou
> Priority: Critical

>
> LINES TERMINATED BY only supports newline '\n' right now.
> It would be nice to loosen this constraint and allow other characters.
> This limitation seems to be hardcoded here:
> https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/trunk/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/parse/BaseSemanticAnalyzer.java#L171
> The DDL Definition on the Hive Language manual shows this as a configurable
> property whereas it is not. This may lead to mileading assement of being able
> to choose a choice of field delimiter.
