I really appreciate the unit tests as well! There is a good point about object reuse though. Is it reasonable to say that we strongly encourage unit testing but we'd like to see at least one end to end test? > Convenience UDFs for binary data type > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2482 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2482 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 0.9.0 > Reporter: Ashutosh Chauhan > Assignee: Mark Wagner > Attachments: HIVE-2482.1.patch > > > HIVE-2380 introduced binary data type in Hive. It will be good to have following udfs to make it more useful: > * UDF's to convert to/from hex string > * UDF's to convert to/from string using a specific encoding > * UDF's to convert to/from base64 string > * UDF's to convert to/from non-string types using a particular serde -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
