Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-7446: --------------------------------- This test looks fine, I'm ok to commit it, but a more common use case is alter table with existing data, load more data, then query results. In RCFile , data is corrupted. Can you see if it works for avro? > Add support to ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN to Avro backed tables > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7446 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7446 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Ashish Kumar Singh > Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh > Attachments: HIVE-7446.patch > > > HIVE-6806 adds native support for creating hive table stored as Avro.
