This is exactly what I have done as well. I use a tool called DBVizualizer,
very similar to Squirrel. When I click on foo2, I see the partition columns,
but when I do a select *, I don't see the partition columns.
One thing I noticed (please pardon my ignorance as I have not had a chance to
look deep into the HIVE JDBC driver source code) is that the patch listed only
2 files to patch, HiveDatabaseMetaData.java and TestJdbcDriver.java. Is it
missing some other file that would have included the changes for the query part?
Thanks,
Mythili

> getColumns() method of DatabaseMetadata for HIVE JDBC Driver does not return
> the partition column names. Where as from HIVE CLI, if you do a 'describe
> tablename' you get all columns including the partition columns. It would be
> nice if getColumns() method returns all columns.
