Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-6756:
----------------------------------------

Sorry [~chinnalalam] for being late on this. My suggestion is:
1. Instead of setting LazySimpleSerde as default for all cases, set 
LazySimpleSerde only for TEXTFILE & SEQUENCE (similiar to RC, ORC etc.)
2. For Alter table set fileformat IF OF case, throw exception if user doesnt 
specify serde. ie if user is specifying IF & OF she must also specify serde.

> alter table set fileformat should set serde too

> Currently doing alter table set fileformat doesn't change the serde. This is 
> unexpected by customers because the serdes are largely file format specific.
