[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-3840) Printing NULL valued columns for different types in Hive cli

["Ashutosh Chauhan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3840?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13540198#comment-13540198 ] 

Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-3840:
----------------------------------------

Currently, hive cli behavior is following:
* It prints null valued primitive types (except binary) as *NULL*
* Null binary column is printed as *null*
* All null complex types are printed as *null*
* All null primitive types within non-null complex types are printed as *null*

This hive cli behavior is inconsistent with itself. MySQL prints *NULL* for all column type and we should do the same in all cases.
