DESCRIBE TABLE syntax doesn't support specifying a database qualified table name
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1977
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1977
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Query Processor
Reporter: Carl Steinbach
The syntax for DESCRIBE is broken. It should be:
{code}
DESCRIBE [EXTENDED] [database DOT]table [column]
{code}
but is actually
{code}
DESCRIBE [EXTENDED] table[DOT col_name]
{code}
