[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-14786) Beeline displays binary column data as string instead of byte array

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14786?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

    Attachment: HIVE-14786.01.patch

Changing the default behaviour is probably a bad idea, but we can add an option for the user to chose if the byte arrays should be converted or not.

> In Beeline, doing a SELECT binaryColName FROM tableName; results in displays data as string type (which looks corrupted due to unprintable chars). Instead Beeline should display binary columns as byte array.
