Method Detail

toHiveTypeInfo

public static org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.typeinfo.TypeInfo toHiveTypeInfo(org.apache.flink.table.types.DataType dataType,
                                                                             boolean checkPrecision)

Convert Flink DataType to Hive TypeInfo. For types with a precision parameter, e.g. timestamp, the supported precisions in Hive and Flink can be different. Therefore the conversion will fail for those types if the precision is not supported by Hive and checkPrecision is true.

Parameters:

dataType - a Flink DataType

checkPrecision - whether to fail the conversion if the precision of the DataType is not supported by Hive

Returns:

the corresponding Hive data type

toFlinkType

public static org.apache.flink.table.types.DataType toFlinkType(org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.objectinspector.ObjectInspector inspector)

Convert a Hive ObjectInspector to a Flink data type.

Parameters:

inspector - a Hive inspector

Returns:

the corresponding Flink data type

toFlinkType

public static org.apache.flink.table.types.DataType toFlinkType(org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.typeinfo.TypeInfo hiveType)

Convert Hive data type to a Flink data type.

Parameters:

hiveType - a Hive data type

Returns:

the corresponding Flink data type
