Release Note:Change HiveServer.getSchema() to return Hive types rather than Thrift types. Changed existing getSchema() to getThriftSchema()
-
Tags:Hive Server
Currently, the Hive Server only has a getSchema() thrift function that will return a schema with fields listed as thrift DDL types. We should also have another function, getHiveSchema() (or some other function name), that will instead return a schema with fields listed as native Hive types. This will make the returned type names consistent with the HiveMetaStoreUtils get_fields() thrift function.
