--------------------------------------

             Summary: Error in hive-to-drill-data-type-mapping documentation 
                 Key: DRILL-4209
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4209
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Devender Yadav 


Link: https://drill.apache.org/docs/hive-to-drill-data-type-mapping/

It says CHAR is supported and LIST, MAP, STRUCT, TIMESTAMP (Unix Epoch format), UNION are not supported. 

While querying a table with char datatype field, Drill client says: 

Unsupported Hive data type CHAR.
Following Hive data types are supported in Drill INFORMATION_SCHEMA:
BOOLEAN, BYTE, SHORT, INT, LONG, FLOAT, DOUBLE, DATE, TIMESTAMP,
BINARY, DECIMAL, STRING, VARCHAR, LIST, MAP, STRUCT and UNION

This is really confusing. Please look into this.
