Barna Zsombor Klara updated HIVE-14786: --------------------------------------- Attachment: HIVE-14786.01.patch Changing the default behaviour is probably a bad idea, but we can add an option for the user to chose if the byte arrays should be converted or not. > Beeline displays binary column data as string instead of byte array > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-14786 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14786 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Beeline > Affects Versions: 1.2.1 > Reporter: Ram Mettu > Assignee: Barna Zsombor Klara > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-14786.01.patch > > > In Beeline, doing a SELECT binaryColName FROM tableName; results in displays > data as string type (which looks corrupted due to unprintable chars).
