----------------------------------
Summary: SelectHiveQL with Avro output doesn't handle complex types
Key: NIFI-2622
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2622
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Matt Burgess
Fix For: 1.1.0
Hive supports table columns of complex type, such as Arrays, Structs, Maps,
etc. However when using SelectHiveQL with Avro output, the result set is not
being converted correctly and an error occurs.
This is a fundamental issue with the way SelectHiveQL attempts to create an
Avro schema without having seen any of the rows, since the sub-types of complex
items cannot be determined from the SQL type alone.
