> Thank you for your contributions! > > I have a question regarding the overall solution for the issue addressed in this PR. Please forgive me if this is a silly one. I recall that the namemapping JSON object allows for specifying multiple names for a field. Would it be possible to solve the case sensitivity issue by specifying alternate field names in the namemapping? Are there any real-world scenarios that would prevent us from modifying the namemapping and necessitate the solution presented in this PR? I look forward to hearing your insights on this matter. The issue we encountered happens when building iceberg table from hive table where hive table already has schema name case mismatch between its parquet file and table schema. While your solution should work, but overall I feel it adds more complexity given that case insensitivity support is already there for other places in iceberg. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
