> To define partition column splits, you need a PartialRow object.
> These are easy to create when you have the Schema object. But since your
> table schema in Spark is defined with StructType instead of Schema, then its
> cumbersome to define a new Schema object to be the exact duplicate of the
> StructType version, only to get the PartialRow, to set what the range
> partition will values would be, then set the addSplitRow() function call to
> your CreateTableOptions.
> We need an elegant way to have the Spark API handle specifying range
> partition attributes without having to drop into the Java API in Spark.
