Jiamin Wang created HIVE-27904: ---------------------------------- Summary: Add fiexed-length column serde Key: HIVE-27904 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-27904 Project: Hive Issue Type: New Feature Components: Serializers/Deserializers Reporter: Jiamin Wang
Hive does not support setting the column delimiter as a space. Some systems require storing files in fixed-length format. I am thinking that maybe we can add this feature. I can submit the code, and create tables like this. ```sql CREATE TABLE fixed_length_table ( column1 STRING, column2 STRING, column3 STRING ) ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.fixed.FixedLengthTextSerDe' WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ( "field.lengths"="10,5,8" ) STORED AS TEXTFILE; ``` -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
