Sample programs, for read/write of "timestamp data" to Parquet-files

[Ravi Tatapudi <ra...@in.ibm.com>]

Hello,

I have a test-application (a stand-alone java-program)  for reading (& 
writing) "Parquet-files".  This program is built using "Parquet-Avro API". 
Using this program, I could read datatypes such as "CHAR, VARCHAR, INT, 
FLOAT, DOUBLE...etc, but failing to read "timestamp" data from 
Parquet-files created by Hive. 

After checking further, I realized that, the latest released version of 
Parquet-Avro-API (ver#: 1.8.1) doesn't support "timestamp", but I see 
that, "Hive" is processing "timestamp" with nanosecond preceision. 

So, I am trying to understand, where I can find "sample java programs", 
built using "Hive-API", that can process "timestamp" data types from the 
"Parquet-files" created by Hive. 

Hence, I request you to point me to the sample programs to develop 
test-applications for reading/writing "timestamp" data to parquet-files ? 

Thanks,
 Ravi
