Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-11985: ----------------------------------------- RB is available at https://reviews.apache.org/r/38862/. The recent changes only fix the corner case like alter table add serde, otherwise approach is the same; when the serde is deserializer-based for schema, it doesn't store columns in Metastore. For Avro, based on how table is set up, both storing and not storing the schema is supported. > don't store type names in metastore when metastore type names are not used > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > 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-11985.02.patch, > HIVE-11985.03.patch, HIVE-11985.05.patch, HIVE-11985.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
