Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-5814:
----------------------------------------
I've reviewed HIVE-5814.5.patch as a diff on the original HIVE-5814.patch that
I reviewed last week, and it looks good to me.
I must admit to being slightly nervous about the comments you made about
java.sql.Date being weird, having not experimented with it myself, and would
like to understand what other corner cases exist, and whether we want to make
any changes to other serdes about this.
Also, we should take on a documentation task to update the HCat wiki with the
Out-of-range semantics.
For this patch itself, though, I'm +1.
> Add DATE, TIMESTAMP, DECIMAL, CHAR, VARCHAR types support in HCat
