Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-5875: --------------------------------------- hive.mapred.mode=strict hive.cli.print.header=true auotcreate.scheam=false > task : collect list of hive configuration params whose default should change > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5875 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5875 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > Assignee: Thejas M Nair > > The immediate motivation for this was the ticket HIVE-4485 . Beeline prints > NULLs as empty strings. This is not a desirable behavior. But if we fix it, > it breaks backward compatibility. > But we should not be burdening all users with mistakes of the past, specially > the users who are new to hive. As hadoop and hive adoption increases > proportion of 'new' users will continue to increase. > We need a way to let users choose between backward compatible behavior and > more sensible behavior. How this is implemented can be discussed in a > separate jira. > The purpose of this *Task* jira is just to collect list of config flags whose > current default is not the desirable one. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
