[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-2177) describe table result contains only one column

["Yin Huai (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2177?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14036199#comment-14036199 ] 

Yin Huai commented on SPARK-2177:
---------------------------------

I think we need a better way to handle the result of a native command. The current PR is just a workaround.

Also, if we upgrade Hive to 0.13, we need to check the results of context.sessionState.isHiveServerQuery() to determine how to split the result. This method is introduced by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4545.

> The result should contain 3 columns instead of one. This screws up JDBC or even the downstream consumer of the Scala/Java/Python APIs.
