Hey all, I am new to this hive thing, but I have a very complex task to perform, I am a little stuck. I hope someone here can help.
My team has been storing data to a custom sequence file that has a custom key and a custom value. We want to expose a hive interface to query this data. I have been trying to write a custom SerDe that deserialize the sequence file to the a hive table. As long as I needed values from the value part of the object everything was all-right, but when I needed to extract a value from the key-part, I got stuck, suddenly I realized that in the method of the deserialize(Writeable o), o is instance of the value class, and I don't know how I can access the key object. It could be I am missing something in the configuration in the java code or declaration in the HIVE. Thanks, Guy
