[jira] [Created] (HIVE-5737) Provide StructObjectInspector for UDTFs rather than ObjectInspect[]

Navis created HIVE-5737:
---------------------------

             Summary: Provide StructObjectInspector for UDTFs rather than ObjectInspect[]
                 Key: HIVE-5737
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5737
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: UDF
            Reporter: Navis
            Assignee: Navis
            Priority: Trivial


In UDTF, column names can be useful sometimes. For example, complex function with many optional parameters something like,

xml_explode('\t' as field, '\n' as line, '=' as mapkey, ':' as items, input)

Without column name, it's not easy to discern each parameter is for what.
