>                 Key: HIVE-14294
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14294
>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 2.1.0
>            Reporter: Cheng Lian
>            Assignee: Gabor Szadovszky
>
> To reproduce this issue, run the following DDL:
> {code:sql}
> CREATE TABLE foo STORED AS PARQUET AS SELECT CAST(1 AS TINYINT);
> {code}
> And then check the schema of the written Parquet file:
> {noformat}
> $ parquet-schema $WAREHOUSE_PATH/foo/000000_0
> message hive_schema {
>   optional int32 _c0;
> }
> {noformat}
> When translating Hive types into Parquet types, {{TINYINT}} and {{SMALLINT}} should be translated into the {{int32 (INT_8)}} and {{int32 (INT_16)}} respectively. However, {{HiveSchemaConverter}} converts all of {{TINYINT}}, {{SMALLINT}}, and {{INT}} into Parquet {{int32}}. This causes problem when accessing Parquet files generated by Hive in other systems since type information gets wrong.
