Alan Gates commented on HIVE-11985: ----------------------------------- +1 to Ashutosh's comment, I don't think blowing off the type name is a good idea. Could we resolve the Avro case by having the option to store long type names in a separate column that's unbounded (text or clob depending on the RDBMS type). This would take extra work on our side to detect the case and retrieve the name from the proper location but it should only penalize tables with very long column names. > handle long typenames from Avro schema in metastore > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-11985 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11985 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin > Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin > Attachments: HIVE-11985.01.patch, HIVE-11985.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
