Satish Mittal created HIVE-7892: ----------------------------------- Summary: Thrift Set type not working with Hive Key: HIVE-7892 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7892 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Serializers/Deserializers Reporter: Satish Mittal Assignee: Satish Mittal
Thrift supports List, Map and Struct complex types, which get mapped to Array, Map and Struct complex types in Hive respectively. However thrift Set type doesn't seem to be working. Here is an example thrift struct: {noformat} namespace java sample.thrift struct setrow { 1: required set<i32> ids, 2: required string name, } {noformat} A Hive table is created with ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.thrift.ThriftDeserializer' WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ('serialization.class'='sample.thrift.setrow', 'serialization.format'='org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol'). Describing the table shows: {noformat} hive> describe settable; OK ids struct<> from deserializer name string from deserializer {noformat} Issuing a select query on set column throws SemanticException: {noformat} hive> select ids from settable; FAILED: SemanticException java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error: name expected at the position 7 of 'struct<>' but '>' is found. {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
