Ning Zhang commented on HIVE-675:
---------------------------------

@Carl, I got compiling errors for tableExists() and getTable(). It would be 
nice to bring back those methods (as well as other methods like dropTable) 
without the database argument. Putting deprecation warning is fine for me. 

> add database/schema support Hive QL

> Currently all Hive tables reside in single namespace (default). Hive should 
> support multiple namespaces (databases or schemas) such that users can create 
> tables in their specific namespaces. These name spaces can have different 
> warehouse directories (with a default naming scheme) and possibly different 
> properties.
> There is already some support for this in metastore but Hive query parser 
> should have this feature as well.
