Hi @Sidi Mahmoud RHIL,

I searched for information about and found this:

Current Apache hive release doesn't support this feature. In the shared apache Hive Jira HIVE-4847, you can see this is a new feature and the patch is available but it is yet to be merged and tagged to a particular release. We can expect this feature in any of the later releases.
