Alex Behm has uploaded a new patch set (#2). Change subject: IMPALA-4282: Remove max length check for type strings. ......................................................................
IMPALA-4282: Remove max length check for type strings. During analysis, Impala used to enforce the default HMS limit on the number of characters of a type string. That enforcement has the benefit of a clear error message, but has the severe drawback of not having any workaround because the limit is baked into the code. Going above the 4000 limit is pretty easy with complex types, and several users have already run into this issue. This patch removes the Impala-side enforcement such that the 4000 limit can be increased by altering the corresponding columns in the Metastore's backend database.
