Release 323 (23 Oct 2019)#
General#
Fix query failure when referencing columns from a table that contains hidden columns. (#1796)
Fix a rare issue in which the server produces an extra row containing the boolean value
true
as the last row in the result set. For most queries, this will result in a client error, since this row does not match the result schema, but is a correctness issue when the result schema is a single boolean column. (#1732)Allow using
.*
on expressions of typeROW
in theSELECT
clause to convert the fields of a row into multiple columns. (#1017)
JDBC driver#
CLI#
Fix a compatibility issue when connecting to pre-321 servers. (#1785)
Hive#
Fix the ORC writer to correctly write the file footers. Previously written files were sometimes unreadable in Hive 3.1 when querying the table for a second (or subsequent) time. (#456)
Prevent writing to materialized views. (#1725)
Reduce metastore load when inserting data or analyzing tables. (#1783, #1793, #1794)
Allow using multiple Hive catalogs that use different Kerberos or other authentication configurations. (#760, #978, #1820)
PostgreSQL#
Support for PostgreSQL arrays is no longer considered experimental, therefore the configuration property
postgresql.experimental.array-mapping
is now named topostgresql.array-mapping

SPI#
Add support for unnesting dictionary blocks duration compaction. (#1761)
Change
LazyBlockLoader
