Re: LazySimpleSerDe: last column takes rest

The setting is used to know whether the last column of the struct should take the rest of the row if there are extra fields.

Thanks

Hi,

What does setting the "serialization.last.column.takes.rest" SERDEPROPERTIES do for the LazySimpleSerDe?
 http://hive.apache.org/docs/r0.6.0/api/org/apache/hadoop/hive/serde2/lazy/LazySimpleSerDe.SerDeParameters.html#isLastColumnTakesRest()

I came across that in considering a blob table (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-637).

Thanks,
Aurora
