Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-6147:
-----------------------------------

[~swarnim] I'm not totally convinced that these tests are unrelated, as they 
consistently appeared in the test result. In addition, I manually ran 
TestHCatLoader, and got errors as the following:
{code}
testProjectionsBasic(org.apache.hive.hcatalog.pig.TestHCatLoader)  Time 
elapsed: 0.184 sec  <<< ERROR!
java.io.IOException: Failed to execute "create table 
junit_unparted_complex(name string, studentid int, contact 
struct<phno:string,email:string>, currently_registered_courses array<string>, 
current_grades map<string,string>, phnos 
array<struct<phno:string,type:string>>) stored as RCFILE 
tblproperties('hcat.isd'='org.apache.hive.hcatalog.rcfile.RCFileInputDriver','hcat.osd'='org.apache.hive.hcatalog.rcfile.RCFileOutputDriver')".

Please further investigate.

> Presently, the HBase Hive integration supports querying only primitive data 
> types in columns. It would be nice to be able to store and query Avro objects 
> in HBase columns by making them visible as structs to Hive. This will allow 
> Hive to perform ad hoc analysis of HBase data which can be deeply structured.
