The ESCAPED BY clause does not seem to pick up newlines in colums and the line terminator cannot be changed -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1898 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1898 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Serializers/Deserializers Affects Versions: 0.5.0 Reporter: Josh Patterson Priority: Minor If I want to preserve data in columns which contains a newline (webcrawling for instance) I cannot set the ESCAPED BY clause to escape these out (other characters such as commas escape fine, however). This may be due to the line terminators, which are locked to be newlines, are picked up first, and then fields processed. This seems to be related to: "SerDe should escape some special characters" https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-136 and "Implement "LINES TERMINATED BY"" https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-302 where at comment: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-302?focusedCommentId=12793435&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12793435 "This is not fixable currently because the line terminator is determined by LineRecordReader.LineReader which is in the Hadoop land." -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
