Rui Li commented on HIVE-16418: ------------------------------- [~ashutoshc], thanks for your advice. bq. use LocalTimeZone and ZonedTimeZone I guess you mean LocalDateTime and ZonedDateTime. These classes are added since java 1.8. Have we decided to stop supporting 1.7? And to do it, we need to first replace java.sql.Timestamp with LocalDateTime before we add the new TimestampTZ type, right? > Allow HiveKey to skip some bytes for comparison > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-16418 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-16418 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Rui Li > Assignee: Rui Li > Attachments: HIVE-16418.1.patch > > > The feature is required when we have to serialize some fields and prevent > them from being used in comparison, e.g. HIVE-14412. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
